Men They Couldn't Hang The Bells Lyrics

I was born to the sound of a ringing bell
A sound that had a tale to tell
A tale that told of the time to come
Time and the ringing bell

As I grew strong they built the land
Built with the labour the brain and the hands
The brain to plan, the hand to take
The crystal from the sand

One winters morning I was wed
Became a man in a hotel bed
The bells were ringing as we left the church
Ringing in my head

So ring out the bells So ring out the bells

The years went past, a boy was born
Champagne bubbled and suits were worn
The older I get, the deeper in debt
Dusk gets nearer than dawn

So ring out the bells
So ring out the bells

What you've never had you'll never miss
But what you've always had's like a deadly kiss
I had a wish, I had a time
Between the chimes of the bells

So ring out the bells
So ring out the bells
