Lyrics Sanctuary - Madonna, Nellee Hooper

Sanctuary

Surely
Whoever speaks to me in the right voice
Him or her I shall follow
Who needs the sun
When the rain’s so full of life
Who needs the sky
It’s here in your arms I want to be buried
You are my sanctuary
Who needs the sun
When the rain’s so full of life
Who needs the sky
When the ground’s open wide
It’s here in your arms I want to be buried
You are my sanctuary
Who needs a smile
When a tear’s so full of love
Who needs a home
With the stars up above
It’s here in your heart I want to be carried
You are my sanctuary
Who needs the light
With the darkness in your eyes
Who needs to sleep
With the stars in the sky
It’s here in your soul I want to be married
You are my sanctuary
And the Earth was void and empty
And darkness was upon the face of The Earth
Is all of this pain so necessary?
You are my sanctuary
Surely
Whoever speaks to me in the right voice
Him or her I shall follow
As the water follows the moon
Silently
Who needs the sun (with fluid steps)
Who needs the sky (around the globe)
Who needs to sleep (I hear your voice)
You are (you are) my sanctuary
