When We Dance Lyrics

Artist: Sting

If he loved you
Like I love you
I would walk away in shame
I'd move town, I'd change my name

When he watches you
When he comes to buy your soul
On your hand his golden rings
Like he owns the bird that sings

When we dance
Angels will run and hide their wings

The priest has said my soul
Salvation is in the balance of the angels
And underneath the wheels of passion
I keep my faith in my fashion

When we dance
Angels will run and hide their wings
(Oooh) I'm still in love with you

CHORUS
When we dance
Angels will run and hide their wings
I'm gonna love you more than life
If you'll only be my wife
I'm gonna love you night and day
I'm gonna try in every way
When we dance
Angels will run and hide their wings
I'm gonna find a place to live
Give you all I've got to give
I would love you more than life
If you'll only be my wife

If I could break down these walls
And shout my name at heaven's gate
I'd take these hands
And I'd destroy the dark machineries of fate,
Cathedrals are broken
Heaven's no longer above
Hellfire's a promise away
I'd still be saying
I'm still in love
Still in love
Still in love
Still in love...

He won't love you
Like I love you
He won't care for you this way
He'll mistreat you with disdain

Come and live with me
We'll have children of our own
I would love you more than life
If you'll come and be my wife

CHORUS
When we dance
Angels will run and hide their wings
I'm gonna love you more than life
If you'll only be my wife
I'm gonna love you night and day
I'm gonna try in every way
When we dance
Angels will run and hide their wings
I'm gonna find a place to live
Give you all I've got to give
I would love you more than life
If you'll only be my wife

[etc...]

When we dance...

I had a dream last night
Dreamt you were by my side
Walking with me baby
My heart was filled with pride
I had a dream last night

[fade...]
