SANCTUARY Lyrics


When the leaning tower falls to the ground
When the hearsay's too much to think about
And they think that they've got you figured outIt's a rude world
It's a vicious world
When they're throwing stones
There's a place I know
I can always go
To my SANCTUARY, baby
Where I run!
And when the streets are burnin', baby
And I know
If they come with torches
'Cause they don't like the truth
They can't hurt me when I'm with you
You're my SANCTUARY, baby
And I know
I'm home
I'm homeWhen the saints all dance to the trumpet sounds

With apocalypse faces in the crowd
There's only one place left that matters now
When it's all wrong
I need someone
When they're throwing stones
Where's a place I know
I can always goTo my Sanctuary, baby
Where I run!
And when the streets are burnin', baby
And I know
If they come with torches
'Cause they don't like the truth
They can't hurt me when I'm with you
You're my Sanctuary, baby
And I know
I'm homeTied up!
Next to a lightning rod
Lined up!
I'll cross a firing squad
If I'm beside you
Our hearts are enemy-proof
Nothing's getting through
When they're throwing stones
There's a place I know
I can always goTo my SANCTUARY, baby
Where I run!
And when the streets are burnin', baby
And I know
If they come with torches
'Cause they don't like the truth
They can't hurt me when I'm with youYou're my Sanctuary, baby
And I know
I'm homeTied up!
Next to a lightning rod (I'm home)
Lined up!
I'll cross a firing squad
If I'm beside you
Our hearts are enemy-proof
Nothing's getting through
