Sanctuary
Casey Breves Lyrics

When the sun goes down
As the sun sets, I become apprehensive.

I'm afraid to know
I'm anxious to face what the night will bring.

After the afterglow
The fading light of day leaves me feeling uncertain.

Of the nighttime holds
I'm not sure what the night will bring.

I get nervous
I become uneasy and worried.

When the dancing is done
As the night comes to an end.

Will you walk me home
Will you accompany me on the journey back?

Through the empty streets
In the deserted roads and avenues.

Across the empty roads
In the lonely thoroughfares.

Draw the curtains
Close the curtains to shut out the night.

I want to feel alive
I desire to feel truly alive.

I want to find peace in your eyes
I want to find calmness and tranquility in your gaze.

So hold me close, don't let me go
Embrace me tightly, never let me go.

You know I fall like rain and I melt like snow
I am fragile and vulnerable, like rain and snow.

But you're my sanctuary
You provide me with a place of refuge and safety.

You are my sanctuary
You are the source of my comfort and security.

And the night gets cold but I would never know
Despite the chill of the night, I don't feel it as long as I have you.

I feel your touch like fire and it warms my soul
Your touch has a passionate and comforting effect on my soul.

The lights are low but I'm feeling high
Despite the lack of light, I am feeling great joy and euphoria.

On the radio, the summer taste of wine under covers
The music on the radio and the sensations of warm summer nights and a good drink feel comforting like a blanket.

And the silence spins in the dead of night I've been up and down
In the quiet of night, I reflect on myself and my life's ups and downs.

But things might be alright
Despite my worries, things could be okay.

I've discovered
I've realized something important.

Oooh
An expression of strong emotion.
