Текст песни I Hear Bells - George Lee Andrews, David Shire, Robert Preston, Richard Davis, John Loehrke, Hank Jaramillo, Gene Bertoncini & Starting Here, Starting Now Original Cast Company

I hear bells in the summer night,
Distant bells that no one hears.
I hear moonlight, softly chiming,
And the clang of ivy climbing.

I hear the bells on the river dock
I hear the bells in the city clock too.
Truly I do. I could show you.

(Bong, bong, bong)

Are you sad? Come along with me,
Hear the world with my own ears -
Hear the starlight faintly tinkling.
And the ping of candles twinking.
I hear the bells in a summer shower,
Not just the bells on the quarter hour,
If you're in need of a world that can shine,
Come and hear mine.

(Bong, bong, bong, bong)

Are we mad? Well, of course you will
Put me under lock and key.
I'll hear music where im rooming,
And the "bong" of roses blooming.
I hear the bells in a waterfall,
Bells seem to call from a flower stall too.
Truly they do,
I could show you.

(Bong, bong, bong, bong, bong)

Is it wrong to be hearing things
Others don't take time to see?
When i feel my special tingle,
And the river starts to jingle,
I hear the bells that i love so much,
Bells i smell, i can taste and touch
If you're in need of a world that can shine,

(Bong, bong, bong, "Shine")

Come and hear mine!
Come and hear mine!
Come and hear mine!
