Far, Far Away Lyrics

Staring at the shoreline wishing for some hope
the weight of empty fishing nets is more than twisted rope
And underneath stern faces while they wait with baited breath
with broken hearts from hoping casting out their nets
See the figure on the shore He speaks his words like plain men sing
His hands they still have holes in them glory to the KingChorus:Can you hear the bells are ringing far, far, away? Can you hear the voices singing far, far, away?And Peter was a liar a traitor just like me
And Judas was a hypocrite and Paul a Pharisee
When truth can be so distant and hope evades our reach
Peter swam across the water and found it on the beachChorus:Can you hear the bells are ringing far, far, away? Can you hear the voices singing far, far, away?I know that one day soon a song shall rise
you'll hear it with the sleep still in your eyesI hear they'll hang you upside down stretched across two boards for hearing distant voices and crossing to the LordsChorus:Can you hear the bells are ringing far, far, away? Can you hear the voices singing far, far, away?
