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.
