lyrics

THERE'S A BELL

There’s a bell on the top of us spiraling down.
There’s a bell on the top of your hill.
There’s a bell by the side of a sound that shines.
There’s a bell on your windowsill.
They were like two lovers entwining
On the best carpet in the house.
They burn a fire inside there nightly,
Isn’t that what it’s all about?

There’s a bell on the top of us spiraling down.
There’s a bell on the top of your hill.
There’s a bell by the side of a sound that shines.
There’s a bell on your windowsill.
They were like two cakes of friction
Eaten together out of spite.
They thought dessert should have a reason,
They thought their favorite sense was sight!
There’s a bell on the top of us spiraling down.
There’s a bell on the top of your hill.
There’s a bell by the side of a sound that shines.
Bell on your windowsill.

There’s a bell on the top of us spiraling down.
There’s a bell on the top of your hill.
There’s a bell by the side of a sound that shines.
There’s a bell on your windowsill!
They were like two lovers entwining
On the best carpet in the house.
They burn a fire inside there nightly,
Isn’t that what it’s all about?
There’s a bell on the top of us spiraling down.
There’s a bell on the top of your hill.
There’s a bell by the side of a sound that shines.
Bell on your windowsill!
