emma langford - the belle and the ruin كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
there was a bell in a tower
she tolled on the hour each day
and would call on the people to come and to listen
below on the earth stood a ruin so old
that the sun knew the stones
and she saw through his doorways and windows it glistened

[chorus]
and so, she looked down and she’d ring like a bell
every syllable rang out to tell him her feeling
and he gazed around, so amazed as she fell
at each toll sweet and strong, and their love went on pealing

[verse 2]
daily he’d wish for a window of hope
she would throw down a rope, and their love would ignite
his roots were strong in the ground, still he longed
to be where he belonged, in the clouds, by her side
she heard his pleas, and her eyes longed to see
for the first that the whispers of lovers held truth
so, the heavens they heard, and were moved to answer
to the cries and desires of the bell, and the ruin

[verse 3]
the crowd gathered round, and a grief-stricken hush fell
no hourly song would ring out any longer
the music was silenced
the storm, it had crept in the black of the night
and the lightning it struck like a sword
in the stone of the tower, and violently
it cut her down, ever ringing she fell;
every syllable rang out to tell him her feeling
and he gazed around, so amazed as she fell
at each toll sweet and strong, and their love went on pealing
their love went on pealing
their love goes on pealing

[verse 4]
she’s but a sh-ll now, she lies in the dirt
no songs p-ssed her lips since the night that the lightning came
stole her away; but the holy men heard of the love ‘tween the two
so they cut out her silver tongue, buried her soul in his clay

[chorus]
and so she lies down and she rings like a bell
every syllable rings out to tell him her feeling
and he gazes ‘round so amazed as she fell
at each toll sweet and strong
and their love goes on pealing…
their love goes on pealing

[outro]
there was a girl in a tower
she’d meet with the birds of the air
and the clouds that would skitter past hoping she’d see ‘em
there was a boy on the earth at her feet
who would talk to the air, and the ground
he would pray would rise up so she’d see him
