There’s a feeling I get when I look to the west,
Silhouetted in the back.

In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees;
It’s black and white and faded.

When I come home late at night
I wrap my arms around you.

Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven
‘Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.

As long as I’m the hero of this little girl
No matter what your friends might say
So I can feel you breathe
It’s not too far away

I’ve got a picture of your house…
Ooh, it makes me wonder.

And the sparkle in your eyes…
Memories come rushing back and makes it pretty hard.

No matter what your friends might say,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.

With a word she can get what she came for
And she’s buying a stairway to heaven.

I don’t need to be a superman
Closer to it every day
And no one really cares
Heaven isn’t too far away

In a tree by the brook, there’s a songbird who sings
How everything still turns to gold.

And it’s whispered that soon, if we all call the tune,
The tune will come to you at last.

Who shines white light and wants to show
Like blue suburban skies?

There’s a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure
There’s still time to change the road you’re on.

And it makes me wonder
Closer to it every day
There walks a lady we all know
Closer to it every day

I don’t need to be the king of the world.
I don’t know what to do.

And if you listen very hard,
Heaven isn’t too far away.

Now the lights are going out,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.

Your stairway lies on the whispering wind
Along the boulevard.

As long as you will always be my biggest fan
Then the piper will lead us to reason.

But I’m never giving up on you
No matter what your friends say
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Heaven isn’t too far away

There’s a lady who’s sure all that glitters is gold
And the forests will echo with laughter
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And you’re in bed asleep
I know we’re gonna find a way
And you’re standing by the door
We’ll find our way, yeah
How I love the way you move
I’ve got nowhere left to go
