(I will find sanctuary)
(I will find sanctuary)
(I will find sanctuary)

You left me broken
So many tears I cried for you
Tried to understand
All that we've been through

Lost, confused
Is this hope? Abuse?
I'll still shelter you, keep you warm
Protect you from the storm
Holding you close to my heart

And I will find sanctuary in your arms
I will find sanctuary in your arms
I will find sanctuary in your open arms
And I will find sanctuary

Wrapped around you
The whole world just disappears
Time stands still when I'm with you
A moment feels like years

I feel confused
There's so much to lose
My head is fighting with my heart
It feels so torn apart
Holding you close to my heart

And I will find sanctuary in your arms
I will find sanctuary in your arms
I will find sanctuary in your open arms
And I will find sanctuary

Just making it up as I go along
Feels so right when I'm with you
But I know it's wrong

I will find sanctuary in your arms
I will find sanctuary in your arms
I will find sanctuary in your open arms
And I will find sanctuary

Alex Clare

Alex Clare (born 14 September 1985) is a British singer and songwriter. Born in Southwark, London, Clare adopted his stage name, Alex Clare, in 2010, replacing Alexander G. Muertos, a pseudonym he first used whilst still at school.

A demo earned Alex a deal with the Island Records label in the UK, and in 2011, he released his debut album, The Lateness of the Hour . Its biggest hit, “Too Close”, peaked at number four on the UK Singles Chart and at number seven on the US Billboard Hot 100. It was also nominated for Best British Single at the 2013 Brit Awards. The two other singles from the album were “Treading Water” and “Up All Night”. However, Alex was later dropped by his label, as the album didn’t do very well. Nevertheless, in 2012, the success of “Too Close” was reignited when it was used in many Internet Explorer 9 adverts, like this one.

2014 saw the release of Three Hearts, and two years later, he dropped Tail of Lions.
