A Gentle Sound

I know a little church standing lonely on a hillside
Its frame was bent and broken
Scratched and pitted by the cruel tide
One learned man with a book
Surveys the blue sky
Could the sea banish God from the Town?
I can hear the sound
A gentle sound
Its all around me
Takes me up and down
All around me
I know a little girl she’s standing lonely on the quayside
Her hair so long and brown
Came right down all around her
Love fights hate in her looks
And in her sighs
Still the girl could banish all except her heart
I can hear the sound
A gentle sound
Its all around me
Takes me up and down
All around me
