Sanctuary
You look for sanctuary
But the church door's locked all night
Nothing sacred, nothing gained
Altar boy killed the candle light
The inner sanctum serves only to sanction
That ain't no priest; he got no collar
He'll turn you in for a silver dollar
You need sanctuary
A shelter from the pain you caused
A dry bed, a warm hearth
A candle in the window
Sanctuary
Sanctuary
A candle in the window
To welcome you home
Between womb and tomb
What's left to keep you warm?
No faith, no hope, only
Power and glory
Sanctimony of marriage
Is like an empty baby carriage
Fire is strong but blood in stronger, and
Life is long but death is longer
Sanctuary
Sanctuary
A candle in the window
To welcome you home
Life is long; death is longer, and
Death is strong but love is stronger
Sanctuary
Sanctuary
A candle in the window
To welcome you home
A candle in the window
To welcome you home
But the church door's locked all night
Nothing sacred, nothing gained
Altar boy killed the candle light
The inner sanctum serves only to sanction
That ain't no priest; he got no collar
He'll turn you in for a silver dollar
You need sanctuary
A shelter from the pain you caused
A dry bed, a warm hearth
A candle in the window
Sanctuary
Sanctuary
A candle in the window
To welcome you home
Between womb and tomb
What's left to keep you warm?
No faith, no hope, only
Power and glory
Sanctimony of marriage
Is like an empty baby carriage
Fire is strong but blood in stronger, and
Life is long but death is longer
Sanctuary
Sanctuary
A candle in the window
To welcome you home
Life is long; death is longer, and
Death is strong but love is stronger
Sanctuary
Sanctuary
A candle in the window
To welcome you home
A candle in the window
To welcome you home
