Lyrics Sanctuary - Emmelie de Forest

Sanctuary

I could have looked away and put its thought to bed
But I shook that feather loose inside my head
It only took a couple more till it had wings to spread, now
This is my sanctuary
This is my show and tell
So free
Remember every touch
So free in the light
My sanctuary
This is my, ooh, this is my, ooh
This is my sanctuary
This is my, ooh, this is my, ooh
This is my sanctuary
(Ooh-ooh-ah)
(Ooh-ooh-ah, hoh)
That feather drifted down inside my head
All neon bright and waiting, tethered to who I am
The hours soar like birds out of my hand
To trace the light and make it dance, now
This is my sanctuary
This is my show and tell
So free
Remember every touch
So free in the light
My sanctuary
This is my, ooh, this is my, ooh
This is my sanctuary
This is my, ooh, this is my, ooh
This is my sanctuary
This is my, ooh, this is my, ooh
This is my sanctuary
This is my, ooh, this is my, ooh
This is my sanctuary
(Ooh-ooh-ah)
(Ooh-ooh-ah, hoh)
For all that’s sacred, all that’s holy
For all that’s sacred, all that’s holy
So free
This is my, ooh, this is my, ooh
This is my sanctuary
This is my, ooh, this is my, ooh
This is my sanctuary
This is my, ooh, this is my, ooh
This is my sanctuary
This is my, ooh, this is my, ooh
This is my sanctuary
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
