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 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
