Sanctuary Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I just want to give you shelter, it's safe to close your eyes
I'm not going to sugar coat it, this is a hard life
And every time I see you, by accident or design
There's something beneath the surface, in between the lines
[Pre-Chorus]
I want you to talk to me, but I don't say it
You don't have to run
[Chorus]
Lay your defences down, you've been running like a refugee
Lay your defences down, and I'll be your sanctuary
Whoa oh, oh yeah, and I'll be your sanctuary
[Verse 2]
When you get tired of fighting, and you've had enough
When you're walking wounded, and it's too much
You can take off your armour, you can lay down your shield
I just want to hold the world back, give you time to heal
[Pre-Chorus]
I want you to talk to me, but I don't say it
You don't have to run away
[Chorus]
Lay your defences down, you've been running like a refugee
Lay your defences down, and I'll be your sanctuary
Whoa oh, oh yeah, and I'll be your sanctuary
Whoa oh, oh yeah, and I'll be your sanctuary

[Bridge]
Close your eyes, it's a hard life
[Verse 3]
I could make you a promise, but time will make it clear
After the dust has settled, I'll still be right here
You need to let me in
[Chorus]
So lay your defences down, you've been running like a refugee
Lay your defences down, and I'll be your sanctuary
Whoa oh, oh yeah, and I'll be your sanctuary
Whoa oh, oh yeah, and I'll be your sanctuary
Whoa oh, oh yeah, I'll be your sanctuary
Whoa oh, oh yeah
