When We Dance Lyrics

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 the 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 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

 

 I'm gonna love you more than life

 If you will only be my wife

 I'm gonna love you more than life

 If you will only be my wife

 I'm gonna love you night and day

 I'm gonna try in 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)
