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 |
