Great Escape Lyrics by Annette Ducharme

Sanctuary

1994

Tell me have you seen the words of anger
Carved into the tenement walls
They're playing with torches in the streets
Burning up the old voodoo dolls
Bones shaking the bones
Got to move with the revolution
The world is changing don't want to be left behind
Don't want to cry want to find a love solution
And I need a little peace of mind
You're my great escape
And I feel so safe with you-oo-aa-oo-aa
In the dead of night; You know I feel so safe
I feel so safe with-a you-oo
The crimson sky is mystifying
Lovers embrace the sun
Somewhere the old believers dying
Somewhere a new life begun
Bones shaking the bones
Got to move with the revolution
New world order got to leave the old behind
This is more than just a summertime blues
It's a cry for a love solution
Everybody needs some peace of mind
You're my great escape
And I feel so safe with you-oo-aa-oo-aa
In the dead of night; You know I feel so safe
I feel so safe with-a you-oo
Sometimes in the night I get so scared
Thinking 'bout what's going down
You know I try to hope but I sink into despair
On sweating sheets I'm lying
Then you ease my worried mind
Shake me shake me shake me shake me
I close my eyes and see the white dove
Flying across my mind
Bones shaking the bones
I'm still praying for a love solution
I'm still praying for some peace of mind
You're my great escape
And I feel so safe with you-oo-aa-oo-aa
In the dead of night; You know I feel so safe
I feel so safe with-a you-oo
