Inner Gypsy — Clear As A Bell lyrics

Lyrics

I wish I knew just who you are,
The way you flicker like a flame.
So tantalizing from afar,
Yet out of reach in all but name.
I wonder where it is you go When suddenly you disappear.
Perhaps it’s not for me to know.
There are no answers I can hear.
Chorus:
I hear a sound from time to time,
And what it is I cannot tell.
A silent echo of a chime.
I know that sound … it is a bell.
The telephone rings … clear as a bell.
If I could show you who I am,
Or find some simple words to say,
The imperfections of a man,
Must be revealed from day to day.
If I could hold you close and still —
We both are moving way too fast.
You, striving to assert your will,
And me, escaping from my past.
Chorus:
I hear a sound I cannot touch,
Obscure reflections in a well.
Although I have not heard it much,
I know that sound … it is a bell.
The telephone rings … clear as a bell.
