"Listen For The Bells"

Listen for the bells coming down the lane
Breaking through the air
They're coming home on this day

This sky is high and blue
The air is low and cold
The ringing that you hear is the songs of the dead and the old

Do you hear the bells ringing through the town?
They echo through the homes
And everyone who isn't with you now

The laughter in the kitchen
The ghosts in the hall
The echo who sits beside you is the only one who ever loved you at all

Listen
Listen for the bells

Listen for the bells
Take comfort in the ring
When the home is slow and cold the bells will give you everything

And when the bells go silent turn to heaven above
And know you're not alone
And you will always be loved
