When the moon peaks through the apple tree
And the stars hide in the leaves
When the mist rolls down the valley on kitten feet

When the sun has slowly slipped away
From the lavender sky
Then the mountains fill the night with a sweet lullaby

When the air is full of lilac blooms
Like the water in the stream
And the blackbirds on the branches begin to dream

When the angels pour the Milky Way
From the Heavens on high
Then the mountains fill the night with a sweet lullaby

Moonlight, starlight
soft as snow
In the meadow fireflies glow

When the morning is a mile away
Down the hill and ‘cross the creek
With the owls and whippoorwills playing hide ‘n seek

When you’re cozy underneath your quilt
And you’re closing your eyes

When your dreams are taking flight
Till the early morning light
Then the mountains fill the night with a sweet lullaby

Then the mountains fill the night with a sweet lullaby
