The Ringing of Bells |
| Upon this day, if all else fails |
| It seems we’ll have to face the truth |
| I believe for my part in this thing |
| I really did love you |
| What you loved was love itself |
| And trying to make a lie come true |
| I believe for your part in this thing |
| You hardly even knew |
| All along the city streets |
| You can hear the voices swell |
| Like the ringing of bells |
| Memories on days like these |
| They echo like the rain in wells |
| Like the ringing of bells |
| The saturation point’s been reached |
| Can’t soak up any more regrets |
| I believe from the start of this thing |
| I must have paid some debts |
| Looking at you now and then |
| You seem to be like someone else |
| I believe at the heart of this thing |
| You hardly knew yourself |
| All along the city streets |
| You can hear the voices swell |
| Like the ringing of bells |
| Memories on days like these |
| They echo like the sea in shells |
| Like the ringing of bells |
| All along the city streets |
| You can hear the voices swell |
| Like the ringing of bells |
| Memories on days like these |
| Run deeper than time can tell |
| Like the ringing of bells |
