Sting - Sacred Love Lyrics
Take off those working clothesPut on these high heeled shoesDon't want no preacher on the TV babyDon't want to hear the newsShut out the world behind usPut on your long black dressNo one's ever gonna find us hereJust leave your hair in a messI've been searching long enoughI begged the moon and the stars aboveFor sacred loveI've been up, I've been downI've been lonesome, in this godless townYou're my religion, you're my churchYou're the holy grail at the end of my searchHave I been down on my knees for long enough?I've been searching the planet to findSacred loveThe spirit moves on the waterShe takes the shape of this heavenly daughterShe's rising up like a river in floodThe word got made into flesh and bloodThe sky grew dark, and the earth she shookJust like a prophecy in the Holy BookThou shalt not covet, thou shalt not stealThou shalt not doubt that this love is realSo I got down on my knees and I prayed to the skiesWhen I looked up could I trust my eyes?All the saints and angels and the stars up aboveThey all bowed down to the flower of creationEvery man every womanEvery race every nationIt all comes down to thisSacred loveDon't need no doctor, don't need no pillsI got a cure for the country's illsHere she comes like a river in floodThe word got made into flesh and bloodThou shalt not steal, thou shalt not killBut if you don't love her your best friend willAll the saints up in heaven and the stars up aboveIt all comes down, it all comes downIt all comes down to love,Take off your working clothesPut on your long black dress
