The bells of Christmas Are ringing in the night The children string there lights upon the tree The bells of Christmas They sing to me tonight Bring back thoughts of you and me Central Park Sliding round in the snow And then after dark Filling the fires burning glow The bells of Christmas They ring of what could be For the bells of Christmas They ring for you and me Sunday walks watching ships in the bay Midnight talks we soul We never let love slip away The bells of Christmas They ring of what could be For the bells of Christmas The bells of Christmas The bells of Christmas They ring for you and me
