[Verse 1]
Sunday suit
Too tight at the seams
Trying to stare at the hymn book
Not the curve of your jeans
You slide in late
Hair up
Lips red
I cross myself
But it’s you in my head
[Chorus]
You’re my sanctuary fever
Blame it on the wine and bread
Every time you bow down
I lose the prayers I said
Older
Holy
Dangerous
Yeah
I know I should repent
But I’m burning in these pews for you
Like every thought’s a sin I meant
[Verse 2]
You mouth the words
I watch your tongue trace
That soft laugh
Lines at the edge of your face
Wedding band
Cold flash of truth
Still I taste you
Somewhere between guilt and youth
[Chorus]
You’re my sanctuary fever
Blame it on the wine and bread
Every time you bow down
I lose the prayers I said
Older
Holy
Dangerous
Yeah
I know I should repent
But I’m burning in these pews for you
Like every thought’s a sin I meant
[Bridge]
You pass the tray
Your fingers brush mine (oh)
Lightning in the quiet
I drink you like a sign
Eyes meet
You linger
One second too long
I’m shaking
I’m aching
And every verse feels wrong
[Chorus]
You’re my sanctuary fever
Blame it on the wine and bread
Every time you bow down
I lose the prayers I said
Older
Holy
Dangerous
Yeah
I know I should repent
But I’m burning in these pews for you
And I’d worship every line you’ve bent
