Six Bells Chime Songtext

von Crime & The City Solution

This is where it starded
The trucks, the trees and her six bells
Now babys going to loock back home
I'm wearing my clean clothes
Yeah I still got the ones you gave me
You've been treading some unsafe ground
And baby looks tired tonight
Out amongs the pikes and narrow streets
You go around
I hear the six bells they're ringing
Yeah the six bells they chime

Lay down your head now
You will sleep sound
I will hold onto you
Through lifes time
You're seventeen
You're are seventeen at this time

I wear your silver rings
With your hand on my heart
Left your there with your grey eyes
Pack up their suitcase and leave
Raise my hand up to the sky
Now don't you touch me
Don't you cry
An age ago you would'nt touched e
On the last day
We will always be fighting
A promise
A year of luxury
Perfect
Perfect kiss
How long my long lost
Will the last day be
I'm innocent of you there
And you of me

And you will sleep sound
I will hold onto you
In lifes time
You're are seventeen
You're are seventeen at this time

I met you when you were a young girl
Years and years six bells back
Six bells passed above the two
On a pier in another time
Well I drew your body close to mine
You held your head up high then
You reached inside then
I would give you everything
At this time
My pretty one
My fearless one
From this time
My fearless-one
My young pretty one
The six bells - I made them ring

Lay down your head now
You will sleep sound
I will hold onton you
Until deaths time
You're seventeen at this time
You're seventeen at this time
