Sarah Vaughan - Stairway To The Stars (Live @ Mister Kelly's Chicago) 1957

"Stairway to the Stars" is a popular song composed and written in 1934 by Matty Malneck and Frank Signorelli, with lyrics by Mitchell Parish.

"At Mister Kelly's" is a 1957 live album by American jazz singer Sarah Vaughan, recorded at Mister Kelly's jazz club in Chicago. The Allmusic review by John Bush awarded the album four and a half stars and said that At Mister Kelly's captures Vaughan at her "best and most relaxed", stating that "her unerring sense of rhythm carries her through every song on this set, whether the occasion calls for playfulness and wit ("Thou Swell," "Honeysuckle Rose") or a world-wise melancholia ("Willow Weep for Me")". Bush also praises Jimmy Jones and Roy Haynes.

Sarah's accompanied by Jimmy Jones (piano), Richard Davis (bass) & Roy Haynes (drums). Recorded in Chicago, Illinois, August 6-8, 1957. (EmArcy Records)

Let's build a stairway to the stars
And climb that stairway to the stars
With love beside us
To fill the night with a song

We'll hear the sound of violins
Out yonder where the blue begins
The moon will guide us
As we go drifting along

Can't we sail away on a lazy daisy petal
Over the rim of the hill
Can't we sail away on a little dream
And settle high on the crest of a thrill

Let's build a stairway to the stars
A lovely, lovely, lovely stairway to the stars
It would be heaven
To climb to heaven with you

Let's build a stairway to the stars
And climb that stairway to the stars
With love beside us to feel
The night with a song

We'll hear the sound of violins
Way out yonder where the blue begins
The moon will guide us
As we go drifting along

Can't we sail away on a lazy daisy petal
Over the rim of the hill
Can't we sail away on a little dream
And settle high, high on the crest of a thrill

Let's building a stairway to the stars
A lovely, lovely stairway to the stars
It wouldn't be heaven
To climb to heaven
To climb to heaven
To climb to heaven
With you
