b>Gideon:
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 ring
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

Meg: spoken:
And after fifteen years gone
What makes you think you can say these things to me?

Gideon: spoken:
Because I thought of you every day for fifteen years.
Tell me it wasn't the same for you.

Meg: spoken:
It wasn't.

Gideon:
I'm still in love with you

Meg: spoken:
I have a home. I have a son.

Gideon & Meg:
I'm gonna find a place to live
Give you all I've got to give (When we dance)
I'm gonna love you more than life
If you'll only be my wife (Angels will run and hide their wings)

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

Gideon:
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
And Heaven's no longer above
Hellfire's a promise away
I'd still be saying
I'm still in love, I'm still in love, I'm still in love

Arthur:
He won't love you like I love you
He won't care for you this way
He'll mistreat you if you stay

Arthur & Gideon:
Come and live with me
We'll have children of our own
I will love you more than life
If you'll only be my wife

Gideon:
When we dance

Arthur:
I'm gonna love you night and day
I'm gonna try in every way

Gideon:
Angels will run and hide their wings

Meg:
When we dance

Arthur:
I'm gonna build a place to live
Give you all I've got to give

Meg:
Angels will run and hide their wings

Gideon:
When we dance

Arthur:
I'm gonna love you night and day
I'm gonna try in every way

Gideon:
Angels will run and hide their wings

Meg:
When we dance

Arthur
I'm gonna build a place to live
Give you all I've got to give

Meg:
Angels will run and hide their wings

Gideon:
When we dance

Arthur:
I'm gonna love you more than life
If you'll only be my wife

Gideon & Meg:
Angels will run and hide their wings

Arthur:
I'm gonna love you more than life

Gideon & Meg:
When we dance

Gideon:
I had a dream last night
I dreamt you were by my side
I had a dream
