Sanctuary Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You're my North Star
I'm gonna follow you to take me home (Oh)
When the sky is getting dark
I know you'll be my shelter from the storm (Oh)
[Pre-Chorus]
You deserve all my love
All my adoration
You deserve all my love
Oh my, oh my
You deserve all my love
This is my dedication
[Chorus]
I'm saying thank you, thank you
For your sanctu-, sanctuary
I'm saying thank you, thank you
For your sanctu-, sanctuary
[Post-Chorus]
Sanctuary, sanctuary
Sanctuary, sanctuary
[Verse 2]
Every waking moment
Yeah, you always bring me to my knees (Oh)
Somehow no one does it better
When you fall down and commune with me (Oh)
[Pre-Chorus]
You deserve all my love
All my adoration
You deserve all my love
Oh my, oh my
You deserve all my love
This is my dedication
[Chorus]
I'm saying thank you, thank you
For your sanctu-, sanctuary
I'm saying thank you, thank you
For your sanctu-, sanctuary
[Post-Chorus]
Sanctuary, sanctuary
Sanctuary, sanctuary
[Bridge]
I've come a long, long way for this
You've been a believer, laying down for this
Oh, the things that I would give
To let you know
[Chorus]
I'm saying thank you, thank you
For your sanctu-, sanctuary
I'm saying thank you, thank you
For your sanctu-, sanctuary (I'm saying, I'm saying)
I'm saying thank you, thank you (I just wanna thank you)
For your sanctu-, sanctuary (I just wanna thank you)
I'm saying thank you, thank you
For your sanctu-, sanctuary (I'm saying, I'm saying)
[Post-Chorus]
Sanctuary, sanctuary (I just wanna thank you)
Sanctuary, sanctuary (I just wanna thank you)
[Outro]
I'm saying, I'm saying
I just wanna thank you
I just wanna thank you
I'm saying, I'm saying
