Lyrics Joshua Kadison

Joshua Kadison

Sanctuary

A vow of love broke it seems

Spilling all our precious dreams

Among the jagged fragments

And all the space between

We stood in awe of this sacred scene.

Wondered what it all could mean.

We watched vague confusion

At the working of the great unseen.

To the timeless sound of shattering

We saw the fragments of our universe scattering.

Sounded like an angel singing somewhere.

Sounded like an angel singing,

"Sanctuary. Sanctuary.

Let me be your sanctuary.

Sanctuary. Sanctuary.

Let me be your sanctuary.

When you cannot find the light

Of your own shining star

I will help you to remember

Who you truly are.

Who you truly are.

Let me be your sanctuary.

Your sanctuary.

Your sanctuary.

Your sanctuary."

I broke down, lost myself.

In the end I can´t blame anybody else, no.

Visions called but I sent them all away.

Looked in the waters, what did I see?

Glimmers of my own mystery.

I tried to introduce myself

But I could not find the words to say.

As I gazed into his countenance

So amazed the wreckage was so immense.

Sounded like an angel singing somewhere.

Sounded like an angel singing,

"Sanctuary. Sanctuary.

Let me be your sanctuary.

Sanctuary. Sanctuary.

Let me be your sanctuary.

When you cannot find the light

Of your own shining star

Let me help you to remember

Who you truly are.

Who you truly are.

Let me be your sanctuary.

Your sanctuary.

Your sanctuary.

Your sanctuary."

"Sanctuary. Sanctuary.

Let me be your sanctuary.

Sanctuary. Sanctuary.

Let me be your sanctuary.

When you cannot find the light

Of your own shining star

I will help you to remember

Who you truly are.

Who you truly are.

Who you truly are.

Let me be your sanctuary.

Let me be your sanctuary.

Your sanctuary.

Sanctuary.

Sanctuary.

Your sanctuary.

Sanctuary.

Your sanctuary.

Sanctuary.
