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, 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 your thoughts are misgivings
Ooh, it makes me wonder (2X)
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 (2X)
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 n your hedgerow
Don't be alarmed
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, ooh
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 souls,
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
And all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll
And she's buying the stairway to heaven.
