"Sanctuary"

"Sanctuary"

Just like the glorious northern star you guided me
Shining a light of pure tranquility
To a secret place where no-one else could go
Free to reveal the things I never show

Strong like a symphony
You protected me
From reality

Somewhere to love somewhere to breathe
Somewhere to call my sanctuary
Here in the dark I can be strong
Knowing that nothing can hurt from now on
Somewhere to love somewhere to breathe
Somewhere to call my sanctuary
Closer to the sun
To your heart I run

I was deserted like the moon is at the dawn
I never thought I'd ever find a place so beautiful
All my heart was falling like a stone
Deep into an ocean vast and colourful

Strong like a symphony
You protected me
From reality

Somewhere to love somewhere to breathe
Somewhere to call my sanctuary
Here in the dark I can be strong
Knowing that nothing can hurt from now on
Somewhere to love somewhere to breathe
Somewhere to call my sanctuary
Closer to the sun
To your heart I run

One step on the horizon
A safe place up on the mountain
So far away from chaotic life

I find this song it really beautiful. It's the type of song you would play for a friend who means a whole lot to you, kind of a tribute to what they mean to you.

I love it because it can also be encouraging, Delta describes where she was before and you can you that to show someone there is other people out there who have felt depressed and down but have found a place that is beautiful and full of love. You can also play the song to tell someone that you want to be that person that brings him/her out of their pain/darkness and if they ever need a sanctuary they know where to go.

.........Yeah, I really love this song a lot. First and foremost, it grabbed my attention immediately upon first listen because I think it is a really well done song musically and vocally. It's a cool song! It pulled me in the first time I heard it! Lyrically, I agree with everything that you have written. I love it that she sings the line I have just quoted. It's not like she's saying that the person is protecting her from the real world, but that the person is there to protect her in the midst of everything that must be endured in the real world. That is an awesome thought, to have that kind of shelter to be found in a friend.

I love that thought too.
