Sting - Until (from Kate & Leopold)

Standard tuning, CAPO 3

Verse 1:

If I caught the world in a bottle

And everything was still beneath the moon

Without your love would it shine for me

If I was smart as Aristotle

And understood the rings around the moon

What would it all matter if you loved me

Chorus:

Here in your arms where the world is impossibly still

With a million dreams to fulfill

And a matter of moments until the dancing ends

Here in your arms when everything seems to be clear

Not a solitary thing would I fear

Except when this moment comes near the dancing´s end

If I caught the world in an hour-glass,

Saddled up the moon so we could ride

Until the stars grew dim, until…

Verse 2:

One day you’ll meet a stranger

And all the noise is silenced in the room

You’ll feel that you're close to some mystery

In the moonlight and everything shatters

You feel as if you´ve known her all your life

The world’s oldest lesson in history

Chorus:

Here in your arms where the world is impossibly still

With a million dreams to fulfill

And a matter of moments until the dancing ends

Here in your arms when everything seems to be clear

Not a solitary thing do I fear

Except when this moment comes near the dancing´s end

Oh, if I caught the world in an hour-glass

Saddled up the moon then we would ride

Until the stars grew dim, until the time that time stands still, until…
