I swear the bells of every chapel were ringing the day that I met youFrom high in the trees, birds were singingSinging of you and meFrom deep in the crowd, you were glowingYou were glowing without even knowingFrom way over here, it looked crystal clearYou were the one for meBut life it ain't so simpleNo life it ain't so kindYou know life could lead you somewhere, to be all aloneAnd you're cryin, cryin, cryinI swear the bells of every chapel were ringing the day that I met youThey were ringing so clear that you couldn't hearThat your heart could never be mineI swear the lillies in every valley were bloomin the day that you touched meWhen you took my hand, then you told meThat one day I would understandBut now I'm much older and suddenly I see just what you were talking aboutStill from way over here, it looked crystal clearThat you were the one for meBut life it ain't so simpleNo life it ain't so kindYou know life could lead you somewhere, to be all aloneAnd you're cryin, cryin, cryinI swear the bells of every chapel were ringing the day that I met youThey were ringing so clear that you couldn't hearThat your heart could never be mineBut life it ain't so simpleNo life it ain't so kindYou know life could lead you somewhere, to be all aloneAnd you're cryin, cryin, cryinI swear the bells of every chapel were ringing the day that I met youThey were ringing so clear that you couldn't hearThat your heart could never be mine
