Lyric

Down the moonlit stair

My shadow follows slow

Silver on the rail

And the velvet below

Every step I take

The room grows soft and wide

A sleeping kind of glow

With you on the other side

I can hear the hush

In the garden doors

Your name in the lamp-light

Drifting through the floor

Down the moonlit stair

Take me there, take me there

Down the moonlit stair

I'm already halfway there

Down the moonlit stair

Your key is in the moon

Your laugh in the glass

A bluebird in the clock

As I pass, and pass

The candles lean to see

The dream I've come to keep

I find you in the sweep

Of the hush between the trees

I can hear the hush

In the garden doors

Your name in the lamp-light

Drifting through the floor

Down the moonlit stair

Take me there, take me there

Down the moonlit stair

I'm already halfway there

Down the moonlit stair

If morning waits above

Let it wait a while

I'm wandering in lace

And a little crooked smile

One more step, my heart

One more note to hold

I leave my name behind

In the silver and the gold

Down the moonlit stair

Take me there, take me there

Down the moonlit stair

I'm already halfway there

Down the moonlit stair
