Broken Promise Land

There's a Bible on the dresser
 And a sign hung on the door
 And a woman in my arms who shouldn't be
 I'm to the point of no returning
 But I've been here before
 This cheating life is nothing new to me
 There's someone to be considered
 So I call her on the phone
 And say the job is taking longer than I planned
 I don't have the heart to tell her
 That a stranger's turned me on
 And I'm headed for the broken promise land
 Tonight I'm crossing over
 And I'll reach the cheating side
 And I'll hate myself for coming here again
 Where the streets are paved with misery
 And lives are built on lies
 A place they call the broken promise land
 I found a note left on the dresser
 And a key left in the door
 And on the floor
 I found her golden wedding band
 Guess she finally had to tell me
 She's not waiting anymore
 She's headed for the broken promise land
 Tonight she's crossing over
 And she'll reach the cheating side
 And I'll hate myself for giving her the chance
 'Cause the streets are paved with misery
 And lives are built on lies
 A place they call the broken promise land
 And it's more than I can stand
