Sanctuary

Pat Benatar · Gravity's Rainbow [1993]

Wise men say there are the facts of life

What ya can't read, you gotta write

What you don't know can hurt you

Welcome to the Wasteland



Haild Mary, hear me now

I'm in need of Sanctuary

Yes, there are hard time to be livin in

Out in the Wasteland

Love's a give away

I fall on my face, like a rebel in the dirt



Chorus:

Sanctuary

Give me some protections

Baby, baby cover me



Feelin lost so afraid

Tryin to keep a handle on the blade

Been such a long time running

Behind these walls inside of me

Ain't nothin clear as far as I see

Looks like a storm cloud breakin

Off in the distance

I hear a drivin beat, drivin beat

Sun goes down like a rebel in the dirt



Chorus



Sanctuary

Give me some affection

Baby, baby shelter me



Heartache gunna worry me down

I don't like it



Show me mercy, peace of mind

Stand beside me in these troubled times

Give me a reason to believe in now

Love and affection

They seem so far away, so far away

All I can do just to make it thru the night



Chorus



Sanctuary give me some affection

Baby, baby shelter me

Sanctuary, Sanctuary...
