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 hills can t we sail away on a little dream settle high on the crest of a thrill let s build a stairway to the stars a lovely 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 lovely stairway to the stars it would be heaven to climb to heaven with you
