Analysis of The Bells Now Ring, But You're Not Hear



I hear the bells yet I am lost,
Upon the chime my mind is tossed.
I need your words to make mine true
There's no one else, there's only you.
Come back to me you help inspire
The very truth that I desire.
I've lost my way my dearest friend
I want to see a happy end
Where have you gone I need advise,
The art in me you do entice,
Return again so I can write
I really need your true insight.
