Song Lyrics

One afternoon I heard a sound coming down.
Coming down, coming down to the ground (come down).
And when it came it took a piece of me away.
It took away, took away, took away (come down).

So coming down, coming down, coming down.
There?s a sound, there?s a sound coming down.
And in the night, in the night at first sight
Come the bells of 59.

Now in my soul there?s a song I sing out.
I sing it out, sing it out, sing it out (sing out).
And to the beat I feel my heart beat.
And then I breathe, then I breathe, now I breathe (breathe out).

So coming down, coming down, coming down.
There?s a sound, there?s a sound coming down.
And in the night, in the night at first sight
Come the bells of 59.

If one day I cannot make it home,
Then let me go, let me go, let me go (let go).
And in my bones I can feel the bells low.
Singing low, singing low, feel my soul (sing low).

So coming down, coming down, coming down.
There?s a sound, there?s a sound coming down.
And in the night, in the night at first sight
Come the bells of 59.

The bells of 59.
