Early morning whispers to me
|
I was taken unaware
|
I remember sunlight creepin'
|
In the window over there
|
|
The day had promised true love
|
Smiles awaken as we rise
|
Our golden slumbers long gone
|
Only you got in my eyes
|
And now I'll never be the same
|
'Cause you made me over
|
|
If I were a bell, baby, I would ring
|
Tell the whole world that you are my everything
|
If I were a bell, baby, you would know
|
That you are my only lover and it's wonderful
|
|
If I were a bell
|
Baby, I would ring each day for you
|
|
Early morning it talks to me
|
I was taken by surprise
|
I remember fingers floating
|
As you held me hypnotized
|
|
The day had promised true love
|
Smiles awaken as we share
|
Our golden slumbers long gone
|
Only you and I were there
|
And now, honey, I'm not the same
|
'Cause you made a brand new me, yes
|
|
If I were a bell, baby, I would ring
|
Tell the whole world that you are my everything
|
If I were a bell, baby, you would know
|
That you are my only lover and it's wonderful
|
|
If I were a bell, baby
|
I would ring from the hilltops
|
Ring from each and every day mountainside, yes, oh
|
|
If I were a bell
|
Baby, I would ring through every valley
|
Tell the whole world 'bout these tears of joy I cry
|
|
If I were your bell
|
Baby, I would ring each day for you
|
|
And no one
|
Could ever tell me what to think, to feel, to say or do
|
Listen, sugar
|
I'm gonna sing about you one more time
|
|
If I were a bell (If I were a bell), baby, I would ring (Baby, I)
|
Tell the whole world that you are my everything
|
If I were a bell (If I were a bell), baby, you would know (Baby, only you would know)
|
That you are my only lover and it's wonderful
|
|
If I were a bell
|
Baby, I would ring each day for you...
|
Just for you
|
|
I guess that's not mature thing for me to say, baby
|
I'm just gonna let the bells talk for me
|
As the flicker turns to flame and passion rises hot (Ooh...)
|
I have no choice but to carry the choice but to carry a torch
|
Come here, honey
|
Let me make it all right (Ooh...)
|
I'm gonna ring for you, baby (Oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...)
|
You know the part (Baby)
|
And it's from the heart (It's from the heart)
|
It's from my soul (From my soul)
|
I ring for you (I ring for you...oh...oh...), oh
|
Just for you (Just for you)
|
(Just) Just for you (Just...)
|
Oh, baby, I still do
|
(Tell the world I'm ringin' for my baby, I'm ringin' for you)
|
