No Tickets to the Promised Land
Music and lyrics by Martin J. Tanger
1st Verse
Loneliness is here tonight
And I ain’t got a dime
And I can’t feel what’s mine
I’ll find a place to lay my head
Or should I turn and run instead
It’s not so easy to decide
Cause there ain’t no tickets to the promised land tonight
2nd Verse
There’s no way I’ll wander on this trip
As days pass through my fingertips
Everything’s gonna be just fine
Yeah, everything’s alright
And there ain’t no tickets to the promised land tonight
Bridge
I’ll raise a glass to the things that I can’t see
And hope they’re merciful to me
And I’ll pray that I don’t fall
3rd Verse
There’s no assurance I can find
However I may be inclined
Everything’s gonna be just fine
Yeah, everything’s alright
Cause there ain’t no tickets to the promised land tonight
