There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold And she's buying a stairway to heaven (And) when she gets there she knows if the stores are all closed With a word she can get what she came for
Ooh ooh ooh...ooh...ooh ooh ooh 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 the tree by the brook there's a songbird who sings Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven
Oooh...It makes me wonder Oooh...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
Oooh...It makes me wonder Oooh...And it makes me wonder
And it's whispered that soon, if we all called the tune Then the piper will lead us to reason And a new day will dawn for those who stand long And the forest will echo with laughter
Woe woe woe woe woe oh 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...ohhh ooh woe
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 When all are one and one is all, yeah To be a rock and not to roll Ooooooooooooh
I had a hippie cousin play that song backwards for us when i was a kid, on our record player. it's satanic, heard it with my own ears, not on TV, in person. it says 'OH MY SWEET SATAN.. HE WILL GIVE YOU 666' over and over, in ugly moaning. very sick & evil song, don't listen to it. true story.
