"Sanctuary" lyrics

"Sanctuary"

Well I got to hate I was a little late
It was an empty dream I'd found
Gone away the child of another day
Where they passed the flowers 'round
I turned my collar away from the chill
Of the San Francisco night
Turned my head back across the water, lord
Everything's gonna be alright

There might be war in the core of Baltimore
A breakdown in L.A
They bring me down you the heart of Memphis town
And people look the other way
Well, if the lights burn cold in New York City
It's sad but god, it's true
I've got John and Mary and Sanctuary
On Telegraph Avenue

Well, the eagle don't fly the Alabama sky
They chained her to the ground
Colorado, lord, don't want me now
It's alright, I've been found
So Momma stop your cryin', don't worry 'bout me
It's gonna work out fine one day
If you give me a million dollar bill
You couldn't turn my heart away

There might be war in the core of Baltimore
A breakdown in L.A
They bring you down you the heart of Memphis town
And the people look the other way
Well, if the lights burn cold in New York City
It's sad but god, it's true
I've got John and Mary and Sanctuary
On Telegraph Avenue

I love you, I do love you
Oh my friend, I love you
Mmm hmm hmm, mmm hmm hmm
