MOVIES SOUNDTRACKS - The Bells Of Notre Dame lyrics

rate me

(Clopin) Morning in Paris, the city awakes

To the bells of Notre Dame

The fisherman fishes, the bakerman bakes

To the bells of Notre Dame

To the big bells as loud as the thunder

To the little bells soft as a psalm

And some say the soul of the city's the toll of the bells

The bells of Notre Dame

Dark was the night when our tale was begun on the docks near Notre Dame

Four frightened gypsies slid silently under the docks near Notre Dame

But a trap had been laid for the gypsies

And they gazed up in fear and alarm

At a figure whose clutches were iron as much as the bells

The bells of Notre Dame

(Chorus) Kyrie eleison

(C) Jugde Claude Frollo longed to purge the world of vice and sin

(Ch) Kyrie eleison

(C) And he saw corruption ev'rywhere except within

(Ch) Dies irae (Dies irae)

Dies illa (Dies illa)

Solvet saeclum in favila

Teste David cum sibylla

Quantus tremor est futurus

Dies irae

Quando Judex est venturus

Quantus tremor est futurus

Dies irae

Quando Judex est venturus

Dies irae

Solvet saeclum in favila

Dies irae dies illa

(Archdeacon) See there the innocent blood you have spilt on the steps of Notre Dame

Now you would add this child's blood to your guilt on the steps of Notre Dame

You can lie to yourself and your minions

You can claim that you haven't a qualm

But you never can run, nor hide what you've done from the eyes

The very eyes of Notre Dame

(Ch) Kyrie Eleison

(C) And for one time in his life of power and control

(Ch) Kyrie Eleison

(C) Frollo felt a twinge of fear for his immortal soul

(Frollo) Just so he's kept locked away where no one else can see

Even this foul creature may yet prove one day to be

Of use for me

(C) Now here is a riddle to guess, if you can, sing the bells of Notre Dame

Who is the monster and who is the man?

(C+Ch) Sing the bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells

Bells of Notre Dame
