[Verse 1]
It's sixteen miles to the promised land
And I promise you I'm doing the best I can
Now don't fool yourself in thinking you're more than a man
'Cause you'll probably end up dead
I visit these mountains with frequency
And I stand here with my arms up
[Chorus]
Now some days, they last longer than others
But this day by the lake went too fast
And if you want me, you better speak up, I won't wait
So you better move fast
[Verse 2]
Don't fool yourself in thinking you're more than you are
With your arms outstretched to me
Now it's sixteen miles to the promised land
And I promise you I'm doing the best I can
[Chorus]
Now some days, they last longer than others
But this day by the lake went too fast
And if you want me, you better speak up, I won't wait
So you better move fast
[Chorus]
And some days, they last longer than others
But this day by the lake went too fast
And if you want me, you better speak up, I won't wait
So you better move fast
