Original Broadway Cast of The Sound of Music — The Sound Of Music

[Intro] My day in the hills has come to an end, I know A star has come out, to tell me it's time to go But deep in the dark green shadows Are voices that urge me to stay So I pause and I wait and I listen For one more sound, or one more lovely thing That the hills might say [Verse 1] The hills are alive with the sound of music With songs they have sung for a thousand years The hills fill my heart with the sound of music My heart wants to sing every song it hears [Verse 2] My heart wants to beat like the wings of the birds that rise From the lake to the trees My heart wants to sigh like the sound of a chime that flies From a church on a breeze To laugh like a brook when it trips and falls Over stones in its way To sing through the night Like a lark who is learning to pray [Verse 3] I go to the hills when my heart is lonely 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
