Stakes is High
Came to the windows in the street
Selling red watermelon, 5 cents a piece.
Merry boat on the river
Freedom
Fresh drams to deliver
Freedom
Over and over and over
I call out your name.
God standing on the brown earth
"Get up" want a hollers
Shooflies in my doorway
White dove's gonna come today
Oh what a morning
I feel so good
Oh what a morning
Of brotherhood.
Hold me by the light
Kitten run the neighborhood
Through ragamuffin boys
All the world is new
By the light of day
Give with your heart
And lo
The Bells Of St. Paul
One Christmas in London
December air
red busses, snow angels, Trafalgar Square
and now the 2 two of us are walking there
remember how it used to be
You never told me how to love you
We never spoke of it at all
but Christmas Day when you passed my way
we heard the Bells of St. Paul
All season, and New Years
they rang for me
that winter, was more then
a dream could be
and every morning what i woke to find
would in the evening still be there?
We never talked about forever
we were in love and through it all
our hearts would sing, every time they'd ring
the ancient Bells of St. Paul
i searched for a thousand hours
through the town
and all the places we knew
past grand old castles and Gothic towers
hoping they would lead me to you
You never told me how to find you
I had to try first and fall
but all is grand
when you take my hand
we'll find the love we recall
and hear the Bells of St. Paul
