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 closed

With a word she can get what she came for





Woe oh oh oh oh oh

and shes buying a stairway to heaven



There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure

Cuz 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 



ohhhh....

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 



ohhhh...

it makes me wonder

ohhhh....

it really 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 forest will echo with laughter 



And it makes me wonder 



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...



Your head is humming and it won't go because 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

To be a rock and not to roll

Woe oh oh oh oh oh

And she's buying a stairway to heaven
