The Bells Of St. Mary's Lyrics
Song Meaning
Verse 1
The bells of St. Mary's
Ah! hear they are calling
The young loves, the true loves
Who come from the sea
Verse 2
And so, my beloved
When red leaves are falling
The love bells shall ring out
Ring out for you and me
Verse 3
The bells of St. Mary's
At sweet even time
Shall call me, beloved
To come to your side
Verse 4
And out in the valley
In sound of the sea
I know you'll be waiting
Yes, waiting for me
Verse 5
At the porch of St. Mary's
I'll wait there for you
In your soft wedding dress
With its ribbons of blue
Verse 6
In the church of St. Mary's
Sweet voices shall sing
For you and me, dearest
The wedding bells ring
