The town seems deserted, everyone's so forlorn
 A storm came from up above but somehow it missed
 The shrine of Saint Cecilia

 The bells in the chapel never ring anymore
 The clock in the steeple can't tell time as before
 But up on the hillside, stands a place heaven blest
 The shrine of Saint Cecilia

 Each day at eventide
 When I seek haven from my daily care
 You'll find me by her side
 It seems so peaceful there

 I kneel in my solitude and silently pray
 That heaven will protect you, dear, and there'll come a day
 The storm will be over and that we'll meet again
 At the shrine of Saint Cecilia

 Each day at eventide
 When I seek haven from my daily care
 You'll find me by her side
 It seems so peaceful there

 I kneel in my solitude and silently pray
 That heaven will protect you, dear, and there'll come a day
 The storm will be over and that we'll meet again
 At the shrine of Saint Cecilia
