Ring The Living Bell (Melanie Cover)

Joanna Newsom


I've been celebrating way too long
And I've been drinking, I'm ashamed to say
Still feel thirsty and, God
I wanna drink the water from the well
Still feel thirsty, and God
I wanna drink and ring the living bell
Ring the bell
Ring the living bell
Still feel thirsty but, God
I want to drink and ring the living bell

I'm not a magic lady
But I wanna sing to help the light
Descend upon the earth today
Because it's gonna get dark tonight
Sing for light, oh
Sing for living light
Still feel weak but, God
I want to give and shine the living light
Still feel weak but, God
I want to give and shine the living light

Been walking
Walking down the street all night
And I been feeling kind of cold
Still feel naked but, God
I want to feel warm before I get old
Feeling cold
And I'm feeling cold
Still feel hungry but, God
I want to give and shine the living light
Still feel hungry but, God
I want to give and shine the living light

Been celebrating way too long
And I have eaten much too well
Still feel hungry, God
I want to give and ring the living bell
Still feel hungry, ring the living bell

Still feel hungry but, God
I wanna give and ring the living bell
Still feel hungry but, God
I wanna give and ring the living bell
Oh, still feel hungry but, God
I wanna give and ring the living bell
Still feel hungry but, God
I wanna give and ring the living bell

Ring the living bell
Ring the living bell
Shine the living light
Shine the living light
