When We Dance Lyrics - 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 counts to buy your soul 

On your hand his golden rings 

Like he owns a bird that sings 

When we dance, angels will run and hide their wings 

The priest has said my soul's 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 

I'm still in love with you 

(I'm gonna find a place to live

Give you what I got to give) 

When we dance, angels will run and hide their wings 

(I will love you night and day 

I'm gonna try it every way) 

When we dance, angels will run and hide their wings 

(I will love you more than live 

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 

And hellfire's a promise away 

I'd still be saying 

I'm still in love, I'm still in love... 

He won't love you 

Like I love you 

Photos 

He won't care for you this way 

He'll mistreat you if you stay 

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 

When we dance, angels will run and hide their wings 

(I'm gonna find a place to live 

Give you what I got to give) 

When we dance, angels will run and hide their wings 

(I will love you night and day 

I'm gonna try it every way) 

When we dance, angels will run and hide their wings 

(I will love you more than live 

If you'll only be my wife) 

When we dance... 

(I will love you night and day 

I'm gonna try it every way 

I'm gonna find a place to live 

Give you what I got to give 

I will love you more than live 

If you'll only be my wife 

I will love you night and day 

I'm gonna try it every way) 

I had a dream last night 

I dreamt you were by my side 

Walking with me, baby 

My heart was filled with pride 

I had a dream last night
