Stairway To Heaven
Orchestre National De Jazz Lyrics

There's a lady who's sure
There is a confident and determined woman

All that glitters is gold
She believes that everything that catches her eye is of great value

And she's buying a stairway to heaven
She invests in a path to create her own heaven, hoping to secure her place there

When she gets there she knows
She believes that once she arrives at her destination, everything will make sense

If the stores are all closed
She contemplates what will happen if she is unable to get what she desires

With a word she can get what she came for
She is confident that she can use her influence and charm to get what she wants

There's a sign on the wall
There is a warning sign on the wall

But she wants to be sure
She hesitates and wants to examine everything before giving in to temptation

'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings
She is conscious that things have a way of not being exactly as they seem

In a tree by the brook
She perceives a calm, serene setting

There's a songbird who sings
The songbird conveys messages through its melodious voice

Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiving
Our thoughts and feelings are often uncertain, conflicted, and confused

Ooh, it makes me wonder
The Lady expresses her wonder and doubt at everything around her

There's a feeling I get
The Lady experiences an inner emotion that she cannot explain

When I look to the west
She looks to the possibility of change, to something different from what she knows

And my spirit is crying for leaving
Her soul is yearning to experience something new

In my thoughts I have seen
She has had visions of a new and better world

Rings of smoke through the trees
She imagines rings of smoke, conveying the presence of something magical or mystical

And the voices of those who standing looking
She hears the voices of those watching over her

And it's whispered that soon, If we all call the tune
There are rumors of a possibility that if we unite, we can bring about change

Then the piper will lead us to reason
If we listen to the piper's melody, we can find direction

And a new day will dawn
The Lady believes that a new era will arrive

For those who stand long
Those who wait patiently will be rewarded

And the forests will echo with laughter
A sense of peace and joy will resonate throughout nature

If there's a bustle in your hedgerow
If you hear a commotion in your surroundings

Don't be alarmed now
There is no need to panic

It's just a spring clean for the May queen
It marks the beginning of a new season and a new start

Yes, there are two paths you can go by
A choice must be made, and there are two options available

But in the long run
In the end, after careful consideration

There's still time to change the road you're on
One can choose a different path to take, even if it is challenging

Your head is humming and it won't go
You have a thought in your head that you can't shake off

In case you don't know
In case you don't understand what's going on

The piper's calling you to join him
The piper has a melody that resonates strongly and he is asking you to join in

Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow
The wind holds a message and the Lady must be alert to it

And did you know
Are you aware that

Your stairway lies on the whispering wind
The answer you seek is beyond your reach, carried by the wind and hidden in whispers

And as we wind on down the road
As we continue our journey

Our shadows taller than our soul
Our shadows cast on the ground are larger than our souls and who we truly are

There walks a lady we all know
A familiar Lady walks among us

Who shines white light and wants to show
The Lady guides others towards higher purpose and enlightenment

How everything still turns to gold
All of existence is precious and valuable

And if you listen very hard
If one concentrates and listens carefully

The tune will come to you at last
The melody will reveal itself to those who make an effort to hear it

When all are one and one is all
When we are united and share everything equally

To be a rock and not to roll
To be strong and unwavering in one's beliefs

And she's buying the stairway to heaven
The Lady invests in her path to heaven and pursues it with determination
