Lyrics

[00:01.470] The hills are alive
[00:04.570] With the sound of music
[00:10.570] With songs they have sung
[00:14.120] For a thousand years
[00:20.180] The hills fill my heart
[00:23.660] With the sound of music
[00:29.450] My heart wants to sing every song it hears
[00:38.960] My heart wants to beat
[00:41.560] Like the wings of the birds that rise
[00:44.620] From the lake to the trees
[00:48.840] My heart wants to sigh
[00:51.450] Like a chime that flies
[00:54.830] From a church on a breeze
[00:59.250] To laugh like a brook
[01:01.740] When it trips and falls over stones on its way
[01:08.800] To sing through the night
[01:12.910] Like a lark who is learning to pray
[01:19.720] I go to the hills
[01:23.810] When my heart is lonely
[01:30.040] I know I will hear
[01:34.520] What I've heard before
[01:40.780] My heart will be blessed
[01:45.630] With the sound of music
[01:53.520] And I'll sing once more
