Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We’ve danced the ev’ning away,
This is the dawn of the day.
Lights are turned low,
Soon we must go,
Let’s waltz once more while they play;

[Verse 2]
Thrilled with it’s heavenly sound,
While we are waltzing around.
Close to your breast,
There let merest,
Then I know I’m Heaven bound.

[Chorus]
Ting-a-ling, ting-a-ling, ting-a-ling,
I love the waltz of the bells.
Ting-a-ling, ting-a-ling, ting-a-ling,
I love the story it tells.
When the bells are ringing I never feel blue,
I’m always singing “sweetheart, I love you.”
Ting-a-ling, ting-a-ling, ting-a-ling,
I love the waltz of the bells.
