song list next song previous song Coverdale/Page: Coverdale/Page Waiting On You
(Coverdale/Page)
My heart is breaking, my whole life is shaking
Every way I turn, I know this love is gonna burn me
But I'm waiting on you, no matter what you do

Ever since you went away, I suffer each an' every day
An' I can't hide the heartache anymore
You left me all alone, just waiting by the telephone
Too scared to step outside this prison door

An' I'm waiting on you

 Chorus:
No matter what you say, no matter what you do, this heart is dedicated to you
'Til the rivers run dry and the sun no longer shines
I'm still gonna make you mine

I'm waiting on you, waiting on you

Ever since I started drinking, my ship's been slowly sinking
So tell me what's a man supposed to do
When people stop and stare and see me drowning in despair
'Cos it's written on my face, what I've been going through

An' I'm waiting on you

(chorus)

I'm waiting on you, waiting on you

(Solo)

My heart is breaking, my whole life is shaking
Every way I turn, I know this love is gonna burn
Love is gonna burn, love is gonna burn
Burn me, baby, burn, your love is gonna burn

Ever since you went away, I've suffered each an' every day
An' I can't hide the loneliness no more
All the tears I've cried, all the love I've been denied
An' still you find me waiting on you, baby baby babe

(chorus)

I'll be waiting on you, waiting on you

My heart is dedicated to you, and I'm waiting on you, waiting on you

No matter what you say, no matter what you do, this heart is dedicated to you
'Til the rivers run dry, I'll be waiting on you, waiting on you
My heart is dedicated to you, and I'm waiting on you, waiting on you
No matter what you say, no matter what you do, my heart is dedicated to you
'Til the rivers run dry, I'll be waiting on you, babe
song list next song previous song Page/Plant: Walking Into Clarksdale Walking Into Clarksdale
(...)
When I was born I was running
As my feet hit the ground
Before I could talk I was humming
An old railroad sound
Things didn't get much better
When by the age of five
They found me walking into Clarksdale
Trying to keep my friends alive

No time for celebration
Now there's no known cure
Seeing I was born and raised
On the wrong killing floor
And my loved ones gathered round
To see if the experiment had worked
I was misplaced, out of time
Privileged and worse

Oh momma, please don't cry for me
Tears to the river - tears to be free

And I see twelve white horses
Yeah, walking in line
Moving east across that river bridge
On highway forty-nine
And standing in the shadows of a burned out motel
Came the commonest Mississippian waiting with his hound from hell

Oh, a shiny neon riverboat
Taking income from the poor
It's floating by the levee
In an artificial pool
There's a six-mile tailback back on junction two nine four
A stranger at the crossroad
I believe I'd seen his face before

Oh, don't cry for me
Tears fill the river - tears to be free

I'm sad to be leaving
The sun's gone down and I've really got to go now
Sad to be leaving
The sun's gone down - I've really got to go now
Yeah, really got to go now
I've got to go - I've got to move

Sad to be leaving
Sun's gone down - I've really got to go now
Sad to be leaving
The sun's gone down and I've really got to go now
Yeah, really got to go now

song list next song previous song Page/Plant: Walking Into Clarksdale When I Was A Child
(...)
I was reaching for the future
Slowly floating in the blue
When I was a boy
I dreamed a dream of you

I danced upon the tree-top
I drifted with the stream
When I was a child
I held you in my dream

Once I was a soldier
In my castle strong
Oh, I stood so tall then
I could do no wrong
Innocence and slumber
When I was a boy

I was walking with a stranger
He left without a trace
When I was a boy
I slept at heaven's gate

Once I was a soldier [etc repeated]
Once I was a soldier [etc repeated]

(...)
Oh yeah, here I am
I've been here since all the time began
Oh oh, I'm here and then
Go round and round and back again

Hey hey, come look and see
My footsteps through eternity
Riding hard and strong and free
The messenger will hold the key

I saw him - I knew him - I touched him
When the world was young
I saw, I knew and I touched
When the world was young
When the world was young

High on a hill
Home of my heart, take me dancing
Round, oh, round
Carry me still
Sweet home of my heart, take me dancing
Round, oh, round

Yes, I saw him - I knew him - I touched him
When the world was young
I saw you - I knew and I touched you
When the world was young

Round, round, round and round
I saw him - I touched him - I knew him
When the world was young
I saw him and I touched him and I knew him
When the world was young

Carry me still
Home of your heart, keep me dancing
Round and round

When the world was young
When the world was young

song list next song previous song Coverdale/Page: Coverdale/Page Whisper A Prayer For The Dying
(Coverdale/Page)
I hear the sound of distant thunder, echo all around
I see the tragedy of young ones lying on the ground
I see the fathers' sons and daughters, I hear the mothers crying
Nothing left for me to do, but whisper a prayer for the dying

Oh, a prayer for the dying

The suffocating heat of jungles, and burning desert sands
Where everything reminds you, you're a stranger in a strange land
The soothing words of politicians, those bodyguards of lies
While guardian angels waste their time and every mother cries

Oh, a prayer for the dying, dying, dying

Machine gun, battle cry, you pray to God when the bullets fly
The bombs fall like black rain, an' all your dreams take you home again
Nothing but bad dreams

You can't read, you can't write, you're so scared, you can't sleep at night
You try to carry the heavy load, walking down Armageddon road

Oh Armageddon road

(Solo)

I hear the sound of distant thunder, echo all around
I see the tragedy of young ones lying on the ground
I see the fathers' sons and daughters, I hear the mothers crying
Nothing left for me to do, but whisper a prayer for the dying

Oh, a prayer for the dying, dying
Oh, a prayer for the dying, baby, baby
Oh, a prayer for the dying, dying, whisper a prayer for the dying

You can't run, you can't hide, you can't show what you feel inside
You're going crazy, going insane, you know you'll never be the same again
No, no

Whisper a prayer for the dying, dying, dying, dying, dying, no, no
Armageddon road, Armageddon road, I'm walking down Armageddon road

You need cooling,
Baby I'm not fooling.

Back to schooling.

You've been cooling,
Baby I've been drooling.

Gonna give you my love.

Wanna whole lotta love.

Way down inside woman,
You need love.

So throw it down, Cleveland rain
The queen of love has flown again
To seek her daughter
Who must lie beside the thief
Whose golden tongue she will believe
Defies the order, ohhh

Ohh, that is why
Ohh, that is why

Shall we dance and never stop
Take my hand and stop the clock
From turning over
And spirit weave and spirit bend
In the move that has no end
That we must follow

Show me your eyes
Oh, light of the son
Touch me with fire
My mind is undone
All life conspire
My freedom has come
I drift through desire
My wonderful one

When you do what you do
I can never, never, never
Let you go
When you feel the way you feel
You can never, never, never
Let it show

Show me your eyes
Oh, light of the son
Touch me with fire
My mind is undone
All life conspire
My freedom has come
I drift through desire
My wonderful one

Oh, hoh-hoh, ah ah-ah,
Mmm oh oh-oh, oh ohhh ohhh hohhh

So throw it down, Cleveland rain
The queen of love has flown again
To seek her daughter
Who must lie beneath the thief
Whose golden tongue she will believe
Defies the order, oh yeah yeah yeah

That is why
That is why
That is why
Oh yeah, that is why
