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, 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 a tree by the brook, there's a songbird who sings, Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.
Ooh, it makes me wonder, Ooh, 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.
Ooh, it makes me wonder, Ooh, 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 forests will echo with laughter.
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.
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 soul. 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.
첫댓글 레드 제플린 곡중에서 가장 좋아하는곡입니다.
대학시절 음악다방가면 빼놓지 않고 신청해서 들었던 곡이죠.
천국에 이르는 계단... 마지막 기타연주는 무아지경으로 데려갑니다.
그시절엔 그랬습니다..참, 아득한 시절입니다.
한 때 표절시비도 있었지만 대표곡이다ㅡ
연주기법이 헤비메탈답지않게 세련됐다ㅡ
몽롱함을 잊지않고 듣던곡 지금들어도 지난날들의 회상에 잠깁니다.
그들의 음악에 빠지고파 30분동안을 리플레이 하였던 추억에 또 잠기게 됍니다.
