Mary Chapin Carpenter Bells Are Ringing
No presents, no candy, no treat
No stockings hung by the fire
No parties, no family to greet
No angel's heavenly choirs
Bells are ringing all over the world
Bells are ringing calling the light
Bells are ringing all over the world
All over the world tonight
No doorways, no windows, no walls
No shelter here on the ground
No standing and no safe place to fall
Just the promise of this distant sound
Bells are ringing all over the world
Bells are ringing calling the light
Bells are ringing all over the world
All over the world tonight
Wherever you're walking tonight
Whoever you're waiting for
Somehow by the stable's faint light
Peace in your heart is restored
Bells are ringing all over the world
Bells are ringing calling the light
Bells are ringing all over the world
All over the world
Bells are ringing all over the world
Bells are ringing calling the light
Bells are ringing all over the world
All over the world tonight
