Sanctuary Lyrics

Do you think you can find
In other arms a peace of mind?
If you do, you're so mistaken
'Cause they're only taking love

You'd think that pain was back in style
The way you force yourself to smile
But I know your heart is breaking
When it should be making love

If your love's been more like a revolving door
And you're feeling tired and weary
You'll find the love that you've been searching for
Here in the heart of my sanctuary
Sanctuary here in my heart

I feel your pain, your despair
Sometimes it's more than I can bear
Just to know your heart is breaking
When it could be making love

If your love's been more like a revolving door
And you're feeling tired and weary
You'll find the love that you've been searching for
Here in the heart of my sanctuary
Sanctuary here in my heart
Sanctuary
Sanctuary
Here in my heart
