[Dolly Parton - Stairway to Heaven lyrics]
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
Ooh, a stairway to heaven
There's a sign on the wall but
She wants to be sure
Because 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 misgiven
Oh oh, makes me wonder
I wonder, I really, really 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
Ooh
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
Oh oh oh oh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
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 some time to change
The road you're on
Oh, it 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
Oh, can you hear the wind blow
And did you know your stairway
Lies upon the whispering wind
Stairway to heaven, stairway to heaven
You can't buy it, you can't borrow
You've got to walk it straight and narrow
Stairway to heaven, stairway to heaven
Stairway to heaven
And as we walk on down the road
Our shadows longer than our souls
All that glitters is not gold
Wanna be a rock and not a roll
Oh, the great almighty dollar
Leaves you lonely, lost and hollow
You can't fool yourself forever
You got to work to get to heaven
Stairway to heaven
If we listen and hold fast
To every question that we asked
The truth will come to us at last
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
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
Ooh, a stairway to heaven
There's a sign on the wall but
She wants to be sure
Because 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 misgiven
Oh oh, makes me wonder
I wonder, I really, really 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
Ooh
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
Oh oh oh oh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
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 some time to change
The road you're on
Oh, it 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
Oh, can you hear the wind blow
And did you know your stairway
Lies upon the whispering wind
Stairway to heaven, stairway to heaven
You can't buy it, you can't borrow
You've got to walk it straight and narrow
Stairway to heaven, stairway to heaven
Stairway to heaven
And as we walk on down the road
Our shadows longer than our souls
All that glitters is not gold
Wanna be a rock and not a roll
Oh, the great almighty dollar
Leaves you lonely, lost and hollow
You can't fool yourself forever
You got to work to get to heaven
Stairway to heaven
If we listen and hold fast
To every question that we asked
The truth will come to us at last
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
