Lyrics Big Country – Ring Out Bells
Text:
Ring out bells
To guide the fallen
Ring out bells
To turn the heads
At your calling
Into dreams that flow like sand
Here where the sky spills secrets
Just as the mist rolls home
The taste of your blood means nothing
To the beast who holds the bone
Ring out bells
To guide the fallen
Ring out bells
To turn the heads
Cities crumble
At your calling
Into dreams that flow like sand
Look how the flag is tattered
No trace of color left
Hopes have faded with it
And all the dreams we never met
Ring out bells
To guide the fallen
Ring out bells
To turn the heads
Cities crumble
At your calling
Into dreams that flow like sand
Outside a war is raging
How can you tell your children
Only victors share the spoils
Ring out bells
To guide the fallen
Ring out bells
To turn the heads
Cities crumble
At your calling
Into dreams that flow like sand
Ring out bells
To guide the fallen
Ring out bells
To turn the heads
Cities crumble
At your calling
Into dreams that flow like sand
