Sanctuary in my mind Lyrics

When all the noise has numbed my soul

When my heart's dry and yearning

When I'm desperate for others' praise

When all my bridges are burning

When my path lies drenched in grey

An inner light shows me the way

So I go to the place inside

Where the sweet memory of you resides

And your smile, radiant, warm and kind

In the sanctuary in my mind

In the sanctuary in my mind

Our nights were outside of time

Like a fifth season

But, afraid of love's entwines

I chose what I thought was freedom

And your tears caressed me tenderly

Like a blessing, always there for me

So I go to the place inside

Where the sweet memory of you resides

And your smile, radiant, warm and kind

In the sanctuary in my mind

In the sanctuary in my mind

I thank you for teaching me to love

The gentle pulse of the Earth, the cool rain from above

I thank you for your soul's embrace

And for your dear, lingering touch of grace
