Babe, baby, baby, I'm gonna leave you.
I said baby, you know I'm gonna leave you.
I'll leave you in the summer time,
Leave you when the summer comes a rollin.
Leave you when the summer comes along.

Baby, baby, I don't wanna leave you,

Oh, yeah, baby, baby, I won't be there,

I can hear it calling me back home.

Oh, I'm gonna let you go away.

You made me happy every single day,
But now I've got to go away, oh.

Baby, baby, baby,
That's when it's calling me,
That's when it's calling me back home.

Queen of Light took her bow,
And then she turned to go.
The Prince of Peace embraced the gloom,
And walked the night alone.

Dance in the dark of night,
Sing to the morning light.
The dark Lord rides in force tonight,
And time will tell us all.

Throw down your plow and hoe,
Rest not to lock your homes.
Side by side we wait the might,
Of the darkest of them all.

I hear the horses' thunder down in the valley below.
I'm waiting for the angels of Avalon,
Waiting for the eastern glow.

The apples of the valley hold,
The seas of happiness.
The ground is rich from tender care,
Repay do not forget.

Dance in the dark of night,
Ssing to the morning light.
The apples turn to brown and black,
The tyrant's face is red.

Oh the war is common cry,
Pick up you swords and fly.
The sky is filled with good and bad,
That mortals never know.

Oh well the night is long the beads of time pass slow.
Tired eyes on the sunrise,
Waiting for the eastern glow.

The pain of war cannot exceed,
The woe of aftermath.
The drums will shake the castle wall,
The ring wraiths ride in black.

Sing as you raise your bow,
Shoot straighter than before.
No comfort has the fire at night,
That lights the face so cold.

Dance in the dark of night,
Sing to the morning light.
The magic runes are writ in gold,
To bring the balance back.

At last the sun is shining,
The clouds of blue roll by.
With flames from the dragon of darkness,
The sunlight blinds his eyes.

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.
And she's buying 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.
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.
It 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.

And she's buying a stairway to heaven.

Bright light, almot blinding
Black night, still there shining
Can't stop keep on climbing
Looking for what I knew

Had a friend, he once told me
"You gotta love, you ain't lonely"
Now she's gone and lefft me only
Lookin' for what I knew

Ah ah, ah ah, ooh ooh, ooh ahh, oh

Oooh, I'm telling you now
The greatest thing you ever can do now
Is trade a smile with someone who's blue now
It's very easy just'a oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ahhh

Met a man on the roadside crying
Without a friend, there's no denying
You're incomplete, there'll be no finding
Looking for what you knew

Ah ah, ah ah, ah ah ah, ooh ooh

Oooh, I'm telling you now
The greatest thing you ever can do now
Is trade a smile with someone who's blue now
It's very easy just'a ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

Ooooooh
Ohh yes, I
Ohh yeah
Ohh yeah
Ohh yeah
Ooooooh
Yeah
I'm tryin'
Oooh oooh oooh
Oooh oooh oooh
Oooooooooooooh, well ahh

We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
The hammer of the gods,
Will drive our ships to new lands,
To fight the horde singing and crying:
"Valhalla I am coming!"

On we sweep,
With thrashing oar.
Our only goal will be the western shore.

We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
How soft your fields so green,
Can whisper tales of gore,
Of how we calmed the tides of war,
We are your overlords.

On we sweep,
With thrashing oar.
Our only goal will be the western shore.

So now you'd better stop and rebuild all your ruins,
For peace and trust can win the day despite all your losing.

Hey fellas have you heard the news?
You know that Annie's back in town.
It won't take long just watch and see,
How the fellas lay their money down.
Her style is new but the face is the same,
As it was so long ago.
But from her eyes a different smile,
Like that of one who knows.

Well it's been ten years and maybe more,
Since I first set eyes on you.
The best years of my life gone by,
Here I am alone and blue.
Some people cry and some people die,
By the wicked ways of love.
But I'll just keep on rolling along
With the grace of the lord above.

People talking all around,
About the way you left me flat.
I don't care what the people say,
I know where their jive is at.
One thing I do have on my mind,
If you can clarify please do,
It's the way you call me by another guy's name,
When I try to make love to you.

Work so hard I couldn't unwind,
Get some money saved.
Abuse my love a thousand times,
However hard I tried.
Heartbreaker your time has come,
Can't take your evil way.
Go away heartbreaker.

Oh let the sun beat down upon my face,
And stars fill my dreams.
I'm a traveller of both time and space,
To be where I have been.
To sit with elders of a gentle race,
This world has seldom seen.
They talk of days for which they sit and wait,
All will be revealed.

Talk in song from tongues of lilting grace,
Sounds caress my ear.
And not a word I heard could I relate,
The story was quite clear.

Ooh baby I've been blind,
Oh yeah mama in your denying.
Ooh yes I been blind,
Mama, ain't no denying.

All I see turns to brown,
As the sun burns the ground.
And my eyes fill with sand,
As I scan this wasted land.
Trying to find, trying to find where I've been.

Oh pilot of the storm who leaves no trace,
Like sorts inside a dream,
Leave the path the led me to that place,
Yellow desert stream.
Like Shangri-la beneath the summer moon,
I will return again,
As the dust that floats finds you,
Will move and search Kashmir.

Oh father of the four winds fill my sails,
Cross the sea of years.
With no provision but an open face,
Along the straits of fear.

Oh when I walk, when I'm on my way,
When I see, when I see the way to stay.
But I'm down.
But I'm down, so down.
Ooh my baby,
Ooh my baby,
Let me take you there.

In my time of dying,
Want nobody to moan.
All I want for you to do,
Is take my body home.

Well well well so I can die easy.
Well well well so I can die easy.

Jesus got to make you shiver.
Jesus gonna make you.
Jesus gonna make you my dying bed.

Meet me Jesus meet me,
Meet me in the middle of the air.
If my wings should fail me lord,
Please meet me with another pair.

Well well well so I can die easy.
Well well well so I can die easy.

Jesus gonna make you somebody.
Jesus gonna make you.
Jesus gonna make you my dying bed.

Oh Saint Peter,
I can make amends,
Won't you let me in.
I never did no wrong,
I never did no wrong.

Oh Gabriel,
Let me blow your horn,
Let me blow your horn.
I never did no wrong,
Did no wrong.
I only can be young once.
I never thought I'd do anybody no wrong,
No not once.

Oh I did somebody so good,
Somebody some good.
Oh did somebody some good,
I must have did somebody some good,
Oh I believe I did.
I seen the smiling faces.
I know I must have left some traces.

And I see them in the streets.
And I see them in the theater.
And I even felt my feet.
And I never tried to be real.
Oh lord deliver me,
All the wrongs I've done.
Oh you can deliver me lord,
I only wanted to have some fun.

Oh keep the angels marching,
Keep them marching,
Keep them marching,
Oh my Jesus...

That's got to be my Jesus.
It's got to be my Jesus.
Oh take me home.
Come on, come on.
I can hear the angels singing,
Here they come,
Bye bye.
Oh feels pretty good up here.
I'll touch Jesus.
I seen him,
Come on.
Oh don't you make it my dying dying dying.
