There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is goldAnd she's buying a stairway to heavenWhen she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closedWith a word she can get what she came forOoh, 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 meaningsIn a tree by the brook, there's a songbird who singsSometimes all of our thoughts are misgivenOoh, it makes me wonderOoh, it makes me wonder
There's a feeling I get when I look to the westAnd my spirit is crying for leavingIn my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the treesAnd the voices of those who stand lookingOoh, it makes me wonderOoh, it really makes me wonder
And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tuneThen the piper will lead us to reasonAnd a new day will dawn for those who stand longAnd the forests will echo with laughter
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 runThere's still time to change the road you're onAnd it makes me wonder
Your head is humming and it won't go, in case you don't knowThe piper's calling you to join himDear 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 gold
And 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
