One afternoon I heard a sound coming down
Coming down, coming down to the ground (Come down)
And when it came it took a piece of me away
It took away, took away, took away (Come down)
So coming down, coming down, coming down
There's a sound, there's a sound coming down
And in the night, in the night, at first light
Comes the bells of 59
Now in my soul is a song I sing out
I sing it out, sing it out, sing it out (Sing out)
And to the beat I can feel my heart beat
And then I breathe, then I breathe, now I breathe (Breathe Out)
So coming down, coming down, coming down
There's a sound, there's a sound coming down
And in the night, in the night, at first light
Comes the bells of 59
If one day I cannot make it home
Then let me go, let me go, let me go (Let go)
And in my bones I can feel the bells low
Swinging low, swinging through my soul (Swing low)
So coming down, coming down, coming down
There's a sound, there's a sound coming down
And in the night, in the night, at first light
Comes the bells of 59
The bells of 59.
