Where the church-bells still ring

(Veerman/Keizer/Tuijp)

Ooh hoo hoo
ooh-hoo-hoo hoo hoo
ooh hoo hoo hoo-hoo hoo hoo hoo


My countryside, you gave me everything you had
The sweet perfume of roses and the smell of baking bread
The black-tailed swallow on the wing and the village school so old
Your summer days were blazing hot and your winters icy cold

Where the church-bells still ring
And the nightingales sing
Where we spent our youth so long ago
Where we played in the park
And we kissed in the dark
I will always stay here where I belong

Where the church-bells still ring
And the nightingales sing
I will always be here even dead and gone

How I recall, our childhood passed away
Messin' around the backyard
Hide and seek we used to play
My pockets full of jellybeans
That felt like bars of gold
Your summer days were blazing hot
And your winters icy cold

Where the church-bells still ring
And the nightingales sing
Where we spent our youth so long ago
Where we played in the park
And we kissed in the dark
I will always stay here where I belong

Where the church-bells still ring
And the nightingales sing
I will always be here even dead and gone

Where the church-bells still ring
And the nightingales sing
Where we spent our youth so long ago
Where we played in the park
Where we kissed in the dark
I will always stay here where I belong

Where the church-bells still ring
And the nightingales sing
I will always be here even dead and gone
