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
