Del Shannon Sister Isabelle Lyrics

Sister Isabelle Lyrics

Far off in the distance I can hear the bells

Inside the church, there stands a girl I knew so well

As I get closer I can feel the chill

She's changing her name from Laura to Sister Isabelle



Isabelle, can you hear the words I say?

Isabelle, can you hear me while a-frame?



I can still remember the night she said goodbye

She said we'll meet again someday in a place under the new sky

But why have I stopped singing? I no longer hear the bells

She's changed her name from Laura to Sister Isabelle



Isabelle, am I really, really gonna lose you?

Isabelle, does he need you more than I do?



Isabelle, am I really gonna lose you?

Isabelle, does he need you more than I do?



Isabelle, no, no, Isabelle

Isabelle, no, no, Isabelle

Isabelle, am I really gonna lose you?
