Lyrics
I never heard the bells of evening
Without a feeling of regret
I never tasted sweet enchantment
Until that magical night we met
Chorus:
Bless you, for being an angel
Just when it seemed
That heaven was not for me
Bless you, for building a new dream
Just when my old dream
Crumbled so helplessly
In that vine covered chapel on the hill
Your face was a hymn that lingers still
So bless you, my darling, my angel
Heaven is mine and life is divine with you
Sung by Laurence Rubenstein:
