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
