The bells of Avignon
the bells of Avignon
say "it won't be very long
till I'm back where I belong"
I'm on my way
it's a long and dusty road
and my suitcase weighs a load
oh you bells of Avignon
please let me stay
will he remember me
after all this time
or will I just be
misty in his mind
will it be same to meet again
the boy I left behind
and will he be surprised
to see the way I've grown
how I've changed my hair
since I've been alone
well, I'll soon find out
'cause now I'm nearly there
I'm nearly home
the bells of Avignon
say "it won't be very long
till I'm back where I belong"
I'm on my way
it's a long and dusty road
and my suitcase weighs a load
oh you bells of Avignon
please let me stay
will he remember still
the way we used to play
up upon the hill
till the end of day
well I'll soon find out
'cause now I'm nearly home
and there I'll stay
the bells of Avignon
say "it won't be very long
till I'm back where I belong"
I'm on my way
it's a long and dusty road
and my suitcase weighs a load
oh you bells of Avignon
please let me stay
oh you bells of Avignon
please let me stay
