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
Oh oh 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
Oh oh it makes me wonder oh 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

And it's whispered that soon if we all call 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 your own
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
Oh can you hear the wind blow
And did you know your staiway lies on 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
[ banjo ]
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 gotta 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
