Lyrics

A bell rings high in a steeple
Tho’ there’s no steeple in view
It happens ah! but it happens
Whenever I’m with you
From somewhere out of the nowhere
A robin sings to the sky
It happens ah! but it happens
Whenever you go by
But when you leave, the wonder fades away
The moment of enchantment is past
And ev’ry hour is like a year ’till you appear
At last you’re here again
And darling there and then
A bell rings, miracles happen
While stardust pours from the blue
It happens ah! but it happens
Because I’m so in love with you
