[Petula Clark - The Sound Of Music lyrics]
MARIA
My day in the hills has come to an end
I know the 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, for one more lovely thing
That the hills might say
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
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 a chime
That flies from a church on a breeze
To laugh like a brook when it trips and falls
Over stones on it's way
To sing through the night
Like a lark who is learning to pray
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
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
My day in the hills has come to an end
I know the 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, for one more lovely thing
That the hills might say
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
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 a chime
That flies from a church on a breeze
To laugh like a brook when it trips and falls
Over stones on it's way
To sing through the night
Like a lark who is learning to pray
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
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
