Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If you ever go
To St. Augustine
There's a chapel bell that chimes out the hour
And a garden wall by the iron gate
You can hear the bees buzz in the wild flowers
[Chorus]
And if you see a girl
Brighter than all of the lights in Rome
Tell her that nothing holds a candle
And to find her, I've looked high and low
High and low
[Verse 2]
Once upon a dream
On a summer's day
She was walkin' by and I felt my heart
Make a sudden leap
That was all she wrote
I tried to speak, but I could never start
[Chorus]
So, if you see that girl
Brighter than all of the lights in Rome
Tell her that nothin' holds a candle
And to find her, I've looked high and low
High and low
[Bridge]
Now the sun goes down behind her
And the bells ring out their reminder
[Chorus]
So, if you see a girl
Brighter than all of the lights in Rome
Tell her that nothin' holds a candle and to find her
I've looked high and low
High and low
[Outro]
High and low
Na, na, na, na, na, na
