Float from the balcony We ride the pine top swells Down from the old hotel On the lake of Silver Bells Leading is lonely When you make alone decisions Leading is lonely When you're dancing through derisions So much left for giving In the year of living dangerously happy On the lake of Silver Bells Light flickers by A hundred suns behind the trees Melts us in a lullaby Our eyelids are like movie screens And we close our eyes And feel the warmth come into frame We close our eyes Until our dreams become one and the same So much left for giving In the year of living dangerously happy On the lake of Silver Bells We dance across 'til we drop The bells keep time and never stop We sleep and we wake To muffled chimes out on the lake We dance across 'til we drop The bells keep time and never stop We sleep and we wake On the lake of Silver Bells We've reached a secret place To rest and reconcile We close our eyes The only change is no change for a while We'll buy the old hotel And we will make this place our own And fill each room with sons and daughters And never be alone We dance across 'til we drop The bells keep time and never stop We sleep and we wake To muffled chimes out on the lake We dance across 'til we drop The bells keep time and never stop We sleep and we wake On the lake of Silver Bells Looking passed the love you face You miss the place you never had But what you need's not just the dream But something on the other end Wake up. Wake up. Wake up. You're much too fast asleep We dance across 'til we drop The bells keep time and never stop We sleep and we wake To muffled chimes out on the lake We dance across 'til we drop The bells keep time and never stop We sleep and we wake On the lake of Silver Bells The lake of Silver Bells The lake of Silver Bells The lake of Silver Bells
