STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN
(Page, Plant)
There's
a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for
There's
a sign on the wall
But she wants to be sure
Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings
In a tree by the brook there's a songbird
Who
sings sometimes
All
of our thoughts are misgiven
There's
a feeling I get when I look
To
the west
And my spirit is crying for leaving
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke
Through
the trees
And the voices of those who stand looking
And
it's whispered that soon if we all
Call
the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn for those
Who
stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter
And it makes me wonder
If
there's a bustle in your hedgerow
Don't be alarmed now
It's just a spring clean for the May-Queen
Yes, there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on
Your
head is humming and it won't go
In case you don't know
The piper's calling you to join him
Dear lady can you hear the wind blow
And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind
And
as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.
