The Bells of Christmas
|
|
Imagine a boy
|
Kneeling by the window
|
Lookin out across the driveway at the rain
|
Will it always rain
|
|
I remember the bells
|
Comin' from the churchyard
|
And I thought they played their music just for me
|
And day by day
|
The rain turned to snow
|
I don't hear them anymore
|
|
The bells of Christmas
|
Will ring for us again
|
When we truly do believe
|
What Christmas really means
|
So light a candle
|
That every man may see
|
The world of hope and promise
|
Like the one we knew back when and
|
We'll ring the bells of Christmas
|
Once again
|
|
There was a girl
|
Lived around the corner
|
With eyes as black as Mary's must have been
|
I wonder
|
Does she miss her friend
|
I remember the day
|
All the bells were ringing
|
As I watched her cross the churchyard in the snow
|
And all my searching
|
for all I lack
|
Is just trying to get that feeling back
|
|
The bells of Christmas
|
Will ring for us again
|
When we truly do believe
|
What Christmas really means
|
So light a candle
|
That every man may see
|
A world of hope and promise
|
Like the one we knew back when and
|
We'll ring the bells of Christmas once again
|
|
The future of the world, they say
|
Is in the children's hands
|
Perhaps if we could let them lead
|
We'd come to understand
|
|
The bells of Christmas
|
Will ring for us again
|
When we truly do believe
|
What Christmas really means
|
So light a candle that every man may see
|
Like the one we knew back when and
|
We'll ring the bells of Christmas once again
|
We'll ring the bells of Christmas once again
|
