(Intro:)
There s a silver trail of moonlight
Leading upward to the sky,
And the night is like a velvet lullaby.
There s a heaven of blue,
And we ll go there, just you and I.
(Melody:)
Let s build a stairway to the stars,
And climb that stairway to the stars
With love beside us to fill the night with a song.
We ll hear the sound of violins,
Out yonder where the blue begins;
The moon will guide us as we go driving along.
(Bridge:)
Can t we sail away on a lazy daisy petal
Over the rim of the hill?
Can t we sail away on a little dream
And settle high on the crest of a thrill?
Let s build a stairway to the stars,
A lovely stairway to the stars;
It would be heaven to climb to heaven with you.
