Stairway to Heaven Song by Led Zeppelin


 Lyrics

There's a lady who's sureAll that glitters is goldAnd she's buying a stairway to heavenWhen she gets there she knowsIf the stores are all closedWith a word she can get what she came for
Ooh ooh ooh ooh oohAnd she's buying a stairway to heavenThere's a sign on the wallBut she wants to be sure'Cause you know, sometimes words have two meaningsIn a tree by the brookThere's a songbird who singsSometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven
Ooh, it makes me wonder
Ooh, it makes me wonder
There's a feeling I getWhen I look to the westAnd my spirit is crying for leavingIn my thoughts I have seenRings of smoke through the treesAnd the voices of those who stand looking
Ooh, it makes me wonder
Ooh, it really makes me wonder
And it's whispered that soonIf we all call the tuneThen the piper will lead us to reasonAnd a new day will dawnFor those who stand longAnd the forests will echo with laughter
Oh whoa-whoa-whoa, oh-oh
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed nowIt's just a spring clean for the May QueenYes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long runAnd there's still time to change the road you're on
And it makes me wonder
Oh, whoa
Your head is humming and it won't goIn case you don't knowThe piper's calling you to join him
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow?And did you knowYour stairway lies on the whispering wind?
And as we wind on down the roadOur shadows taller than our soulThere walks a lady we all knowWho shines white light and wants to showHow everything still turns to goldAnd if you listen very hardThe tune will come to you at lastWhen all are one and one is all, yeahTo be a rock and not to roll
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
