Stairways to the Stars Songtext
von Ella Fitzgerald

There is 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


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