The Sound of Music

The Sound of Music - Edmund Hockridge/Bryan Johnson

My day in the hills has come to an end

I know

The stars have come out

To tell me it's time to go

But deep in their 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 want's to sing

Every song it hears

My heart want's to beat

Like the wings of the birds

That rise from the lake to the trees

My heart want's 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

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
