"We'll Be Together" is a song written and recorded by English singer-songwriter Sting. It was released in 1987 as the lead single from his second studio album, ...Nothing Like the Sun. It is one of Sting's most recognizable and popular songs in North America.

Sting wrote the song for a beer commercial for Kirin Brewery Company. The original recording included Eric Clapton on guitar, while other takes feature Bryan Loren instead. The version with Clapton would surface later on Sting's 1994 greatest hits album Fields of Gold: The Best of Sting 1984–1994.

Lyrics from Sting's 1985 song "If You Love Somebody Set Them Free" are featured near the end of the song.

"We'll Be Together" was released as the first single from ...Nothing Like the Sun, backed with "Conversation With a Dog". The single achieved chart success, reaching number 7 on the US Billboard Hot 100. It was less successful in Sting's home country, where it peaked at #41 on the UK Singles Chart.

In 2004 during the North American dates of Sting's Sacred Love Tour, he was joined by Annie Lennox. During the tour, this was the only song that the two performed together. They then re-recorded a version of the song which later appeared on the soundtrack for Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason.

The video was shot in black-and-white and was directed by Mary Lambert, based on the film Orpheus, and includes an appearance by Sting's wife Trudie Styler. Sting wears a homemade jumper (sweater) in the video based on the Belgian cartoon The Adventures of Tintin.
