If I Were a Bell

If I Were A Bell - Teena Marie

Early morning whispers to me

I was taken unaware

I remember sunlight creepin＇

In the window over there

The day had promised true love

Smiles awaken as we rise

Our golden slumbers long gone

Only you got in my eyes

And now I＇ll never be the same

＇Cause you made me over

If I were a bell baby I would ring

Tell the whole world that you are my everything

If I were a bell baby you would know

That you are my only lover and it＇s wonderful

If I were a bell baby I would ring each day for you

Early morning it talks to me

I was taken by surprise

I remember fingers floating

As you held me hypnotized

The day had promised true love

Smiles awaken as we share

Our golden slumbers long gone

Only you and I were there

And now honey I＇m not the same

＇Cause you made a brand new me yes

If I were a bell baby I would ring

Tell the whole world that you are my everything

If I were a bell baby you would know

That you are my only lover and it＇s wonderful

If I were a bell baby I would ring from the hilltops

Ring from each and every mountainside yes oh

If I were a bell baby I would ring through every valley

Tell the whole world ＇bout these tears of joy I cry

If I were your bell baby I would ring each day for you

And no one could ever tell me what to think

To feel to say or do listen sugar

I＇m gonna sing about you one more time

If I were a bell baby I would ring

Tell the whole world that you are my everything

If I were a bell baby you would know

That you are my only lover and it＇s wonderful

If I were a bell baby I would ring each day for you

Just for you oh yeah ooh

I guess that＇s not a mature thing for me to say baby

I＇m just gonna let the bells talk for me

As the flicker turns to flame and passion rises hot

I have no choice but to carry a torch

Come here honey let me make it alright

I＇m gonna ring for you baby you know the part

From my heart from my soul

Just for you just oh baby just for you
