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


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 drifting along

CHORUS:
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



Let's build a
stairway to the stars
A lovely stairway to the stars
It would be heaven
to climb to heaven with you
