lyrics

The Winter Bells have started ringing
They sing a sad beautiful song
For the dying and the living
For the weak and for the strong.

While men keep praying for redemption
And maybe for a little sun
The Winter Bells will keep on ringing
They ring for better things to come.

Chorus
And I would sail the seven oceans
I would sail the seven seas
Just to hold onto these moments
‘til Winter Bells ring out for me


Burning coppered coloured mountains
Have all faded with the sun
Now the road home wears a blanket
Of the leaves whose job has been and done

Inside we gather round the fire
Singing stories about the past
We raise our glasses to the future
We try to make these moments last

Chorus

The Winter Bells have fallen silent
That long last note has died away
And we’re left staring at the fire
At the closing of the day

So come on raise the roof beams higher
For the night that’s just begun
And we’ll sing songs around the fire
Well sing until the morning comes

Chorus
