Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Listen how the bells, they ring in the morning
What do they say to you, my love?
Some hear a song and some hear a warning
What do they say to you, my love?
[Verse 2]
They say we gotta get a move along
Farther down the line
Can't be wasting our time
[Verse 3]
Listen how the birds sing in the evening
What do they say to you, my love?
Are they rejoicing or are they grieving?
What do they say to you, my love?
[Verse 4]
They tell me that life is sweet enough
To cheer us on our way
Just enough for today
[Verse 5]
Listen how the bells they ring in the morning
What do they say to you, my love?
Listen how the bells they ring in the morning
What do they say to you, my love?
What do they say to you, my love?
