When We Dance Lyrics By Sting

    if he loves 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 the faith in my fashion
    when we dance angels will run and hide their wings
    i’m still in love with you
    i’m going to find a place to live
    give you all i’ve got to give

    when we dance angels will run and hide their wings
    when we dance angels will run and hide their wings

    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

    he won’t love you
    like i love you
    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
    when we dance angels will run and hide their wings
    when we dance angels will run and hide their wings
    when we dance angels will run and hide their wings
