Married with children, and a dog To a man who hits her when he's wild Overbearing, under caring Keeps her like a frightened child She's made a man inside her head Whose gentle, good and strong And he can take her far from the carnivore How far? Shangri-La far, there she will belong I need you near (get out of there) Sanctuary (get out of there) No one comes here (get out of there) We live alone in nowhere (get out of there) Stands in the kitchen wishing hard Staring out at distant stars Raise the baby, change the other one Pray her man unveils his heart She says this and consoles herself It's just an empty stage It's just an empty stage I'm gone thought How far could it stretch? How far could it go? I need you near (get out of there) Sanctuary (get out of there) No one comes here (get out of there) We live alone in nowhere He won't find you (get out of there) And I'll unwind you (get out of there) 'Cause I really do care (get out of there) You trapped in fear and you have to get out of there get out of there Get out of there, get out of there Get out of there Half an hour passes She moves, takes the phone receiver from the wall Dials a number, dials another one No one seems to hear her call She's tried her friends They can't help with her private hell Slowly she drifts further away from him How far? Well, see that star? That's how far she could go How far? See that star? How far could she go? I need you near me Sanctuary No one cone here We'll live alone in nowhere Get out of there Get out of there Get out of there
