Float from the balcony    We ride the pine top swells    Down from the old hotel    On the lake of Silver Bells    Leading is lonely    When you make alone decisions    Leading is lonely    When you're dancing through derisions    So much left for giving    In the year of living dangerously happy    On the lake of Silver Bells       Light flickers by    A hundred suns behind the trees    Melts us in a lullaby    Our eyelids are like movie screens    And we close our eyes    And feel the warmth come into frame    We close our eyes    Until our dreams become one and the same    So much left for giving    In the year of living dangerously happy    On the lake of Silver Bells       We dance across till we drop    The bells keep time and never stop    We sleep and we wake    To muffled chimes out on the lake    We dance across till we drop    The bells keep time and never stop    We sleep and we wake    On the lake of Silver Bells       We've reached a secret place    To rest and reconcile    We close our eyes    The only change is no change for a while    We'll buy the old hotel    And we will make this place our own    And fill each room with sons and daughters    And never be alone       We dance across till we drop    The bells keep time and never stop    We sleep and we wake    To muffled chimes out on the lake    We dance across till we drop    The bells keep time and never stop    We sleep and we wake    On the lake of Silver Bells       Looking passed the love you face    You miss the place you never had    But what you need's not just the dream    But something on the other end    Wake up. Wake up. Wake up.    You're much too fast asleep      We dance across till we drop    The bells keep time and never stop    We sleep and we wake    To muffled chimes out on the lake    We dance across till we drop    The bells keep time and never stop    We sleep and we wake    On the lake of Silver Bells   The lake of Silver Bells   The lake of Silver Bells   The lake of Silver Bells
