The Closing Of The Year

If i cannot bring you comfort,
then at least i bring you home
for nothing is more precious
than the time we haven't sold

We all must learn from small misfortunes
count the blessings that are real
Let the bells ring out for Christmas
at the closing of the year

Let the bells ring out for Christmas
at the closing of the year

If i cannot bring you comfort,
then at least i bring you home

At the closing of the year
at the closing of the year
at the closing of the year
(instrumental)

(The following is added in the reprise, although i do not have it complete here)

Now all the winter bells are ringing
hear them echo through the snow
and the children's voices singing
on the streets so far below

This is a time to be together
and the truth is somewhere here
within our love for people
at the closing of the year
