[00:13.85]Sacred Love
[00:24.48]
[00:37.90]Take off those working clothes
[00:42.28]Put on these high heeled shoes
[00:47.16]Don't want no preacher on the TV baby
[00:51.94]Don't want to hear the news
[00:54.85]
[00:56.98]Shut out the world behind us
[01:01.68]Put on your long black dress
[01:06.40]No one's ever gonna find us here
[01:11.27]Just leave your hair in a mess
[01:16.10]I've been searching long enough
[01:20.85]I begged the moon and the stars above
[01:26.95]For sacred love
[01:29.09]
[01:37.99]I've been up, I've been down
[01:42.49]I've been lonesome, in this godless town
[01:47.65]You're my religion, you're my church
[01:52.06]You're the holy grail at the end of my search
[01:56.05]Have I been down on my knees for long enough?
[02:00.93]I've been searching the planet to find
[02:05.27]Sacred love
[02:11.06]
[02:16.50]The spirit moves on the water
[02:21.25]She takes the shape of this heavenly daughter
[02:25.83]She's rising up like a river in flood
[02:29.83]The word got made into flesh and blood
[02:34.85]The sky grew dark, and the earth she shook
[02:38.93]Just like a prophecy in the Holy Book
[02:43.61]Thou shalt not covet, thou shalt not steal
[02:48.89]Thou shalt not doubt that this love is real
[02:53.52]So I got down on my knees and I prayed to the skies
[02:58.21]When I looked up could I trust my eyes?
[03:02.68]All the saints and angels and the stars up above
[03:09.94]They all bowed down to the flower of creation
[03:15.87]Every man every woman
[03:18.28]Every race every nation
[03:20.60]It all comes down to this
[03:24.61]Sacred love
[03:26.11]
[03:35.80]Don't need no doctor, don't need no pills
[03:40.20]I got a cure for the country's ills
[03:45.05]Here she comes like a river in flood
[03:48.57]The word got made into flesh and blood
[03:54.05]Thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not kill
[03:58.30]But if you don't love her your best friend will
[04:02.93]All the saints up in heaven and the stars up above
[04:07.96]It all comes down, it all comes down
[04:12.61]It all comes down to love,
[04:25.72][04:16.67]Take off your working clothes
[04:28.44][04:18.88]Put on your long black dress
[04:59.38][04:50.17][04:40.18][04:30.92][04:21.06]And your high heeled shoes
[05:01.91][04:52.23][04:42.80][04:32.99][04:23.56]Just leave your hair in a mess
[04:34.88]I've been thinking 'bout religion
[04:37.08]I've been thinking 'bout the things that we believe
[04:44.59]I've been thinking 'bout the Bible
[04:46.65]I've been thinking 'bout Adam and Eve
[04:54.24]I've been thinking 'bout the garden
[04:56.05]I've been thinking 'bout the tree of knowledge, and the tree of life
[05:03.75]I've been thinking 'bout forbidden fruit
[05:05.58]I've been thinking 'bout a man and his wife
[05:10.18]I been thinking 'bout, thinking 'bout
[05:12.50]Sacred love, sacred love
