You Sent Me Silver Bells
[Intro]
(Silver bells)
(Silver bells)
[Verse 1]
On that day
When you said, "I will have to go away
They're calling me"
Suddenly
Every joy turned to pain inside of me
Hurting me
[Bridge 1]
Couldn't hide the feelings deep inside
I just broke down and cried
And so you promised me, faithfully
Something nice so you sent me
Silver bells
[Verse 2]
Yesterday
From a place faraway
Silver bells
The letter said
"Save these bells, keep them for our wedding day"
Silver bells
[Bridge 2]
But today the mail man came once more
And as I close the door
I heard the sound of the bells bright and clear
Telling me that you were near
[Verse 3]
As I read
"We regret...", I just couldn't read the rest
I could tell
The silver bells (Silver bells)
That I heard were the ones you sent to me (Silver bells)
Silver bells (Silver bells)
[Outro]
These silver bells
These silver bells
You sent me silver bells
