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 |
|
Ooo-oooh |
|
And she's buying a 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 misleading |
|
Oooh makes me wonder |
|
Oh-ooooh 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 |
|
And oooh makes me wonder |
|
And oh-ooooh 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 |
|
Yes it makes me wonder |
|
And owowowow, no |
|
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 |
|
On and on |
|
Said ooooh makes me wonder |
|
And oh-oh-oh-ooooh 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 |
|
Say! |
|
Say! |
|
Mother, Mary & Yozuf! |
|
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 know |
|
How everything still turns to gold |
|
And if you listen very hard |
|
The news 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 a stairway to Heaven |
