The Passing Bell

from The Passing Bell by Pat Orchard

/

lyrics

cool sunlight from the moon
reaches shadows across the room
outside is the gentle refrain
of autumn leaves kissed by winter rain
and as she sleeps
she fills my heart
as i watch silent in the dark

but don't be alarmed
the shadow man will do no harm
don't you take fright
the shadow man is a fly-by night
well soon he'll bid his last farewell
when he hears the passing bell

as it chimes
and in time it is time to go
but first I will hold your hand
against mine it is white as snow
and like a thief to you I will creep
and steal a kiss gently while you sleep

and don't be alarmed
the shadow man will do no harm
don't you take fright
the shadow man is a fly-by night
and soon hell bid his last farewell
as he hears the passing bell

the passing bell
the passing bell

no don't be alarmed
the shadow man will do no harm
don't you take fright
the shadow man is a fly-by night
and soon hell say his last farewell
as he hears the passing bell

the passing bell
the passing bell...
