Richard Rodgers
The Sound of Music
[Verse 1]
The hills are alive with the sound of music (Hills are alive)
With songs they have sung for a thousand years
The hills fill my heart with the sound of sweet music
My heart wants to sing every song it hears
My heart wants to beat like the wings of the birds that rise from the lake to the trees
[Verse 2]
My heart wants to sigh like a chime that flies from a church on a breeze
To laugh like a brook when it trips and falls over stones on its way
To sing through the night like a lark who is learning to prey
I go to the hills when my heart is lonely (Go to the hills)
'Cause I know I will hear what I've heard before
My heart will be blessed with the sound of music
And I'll sing once more
And I'll sing once more
