Promised Land
starwolf Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm wide awake in the middle of the night
Cursed to be a [?] man
Talk to me
You know we've got the world in the palm of our hands
We could take it slow
Or maybe it's better if we don't
Then let go
It's all we can do
If you want love but you can't get enough
I'll give you what you want
Here we are, living up the promised land
We took a hand and counted deep into the night
I got you eating out the palm of my hand
If you want love around you
Then let go
It's all we can do
If you want love but you can't get enough
If you want love around you
Then let go
It's all we can do
If you want love but you can't get enough
I'll give you what you want
Now it's more than just a feeling
I can't get enough
Now it's more than just a feeling
Wide awake and dreaming
Never [?]
If you want love around you
Then let go
It's all we can do
If you want love but you can't get enough
I'll give you what you want
If you want love around you
Then let go
It's all we can do
If you want love but you can't get enough
I'll give you what you want

The singer seems to be in a state of restlessness, yearning for something more in life.
The refrain of the song, "If you want love around you, Then let go, It's all we can do, If you want love but you can't get enough, I'll give you what you want," conveys a message of surrendering oneself to love and allowing it to enter their life. It implies that sometimes in order to experience love, one must release control and be open to receiving it.
As the song progresses, the lyrics mention living in the promised land and counting deep into the night. This could symbolize the pursuit of happiness and fulfillment, where the singer takes a leap of faith and embraces love. The line, "I got you eating out the palm of my hand," suggests a sense of power and influence over someone, possibly in a romantic context.
Overall, "Promised Land" portrays the longing for love and the willingness to give and receive it. It encourages the listener to let go of control and allow love to enter their life, ultimately promising to fulfill their desires.
