Lyrics
|
There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
|
And she's buying the 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
|
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying the stairway to heaven
|
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
|
Ooh, it makes me wonder
|
Ooh, it makes me wonder
|
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
|
Ooh, it makes me wonder
|
Ooh, really makes me wonder
|
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
|
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
|
And it makes me wonder
|
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
|
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
|
And she's buying the stairway to heaven
|
