The Bell That Never Rang lyrics

You pulled me from the river with a ring in my mouth
I was landed on the bank; I won't be swimming any more
I fought like a boy with a string 'round his tooth
And the other end tied to the handle of a door

I was swung through the air by a man in a hat
He wears it to stop folk from knowing his mind
I know I was shaken as I sliced through the air
I kept my own counsel; remained silent and blind

I was grounded and fightless; a cruel prank had played
On the stage that I stood on, in the silence I made
As the door swung to lintel and the line became tight
I caught the man's orders and swam to the light

[Refrain]
Nobody know's when you'll go and no-one thinks to tell you
Nobody know's when you'll go and no-one thinks to tell you
Nobody know's when you'll go and no-one thinks to tell you
Nobody know's when you'll go and no-one thinks to tell you
Nobody know's when you'll go and no-one thinks to tell you
Nobody know's when you'll go and no-one thinks to tell you
Nobody know's when you'll go and no-one thinks to tell you
Nobody know's when you'll go and no-one thinks to tell you
