10000 Maniacs Silver Bells Lyrics

Silver Bells Lyrics

==============

 Silver Bells

 ==============

 Jay Livingston and Ray Evans 

 

 

 City sidewalks, busy sidewalks

 Dressed in holiday style 

 In the air 

 There's a feeling 

 of Christmas 

 Children laughing 

 People passing 

 Meeting smile after smile 

 And on ev'ry street corner you'll hear 

 

 

 Silver bells, silver bells 

 It's Christmas time in the city 

 Ring-a-ling, hear them sing 

 Soon it will be Christmas day 

 

 

 Strings of street lights 

 Even stop lights 

 Blink a bright red and green 

 As the shoppers rush 

 home with their treasures 

 

 

 Hear the snow crunch 

 See the kids bunch 

 This is Santa's big scene 

 And above all this bustle 

 You'll hear 

 Silver bells, silver bells 

 It's Christmas time in the city 

 Ring-a-ling, hear them sing 

 Soon it will be Christmas day
