John Bonham

when you come home
I breathe a little faster
everytime we're together
it'd never be the same
if you're not here
how can you stay away, away so long?
why can't we stay together?
give me a reason, give me a reason
I, I don't wanna say it
I don't wanna find another way
Make it through the day without you
I, I can't resist
Trying to find exactly what I miss
It's just another day without you
It's just another day, oh
Making the time
Find the right lines
To make you stay forever
What do I have to tell you?
I'm just trying ot hold on to something
(trying to hold on to something good)
Give us a chance to make it
Don't wanna hold on to never
I'm not that strong, I'm not that strong
I, I don't wanna say it
I don't wanna find another way
Make it through the day without you
I, I can't resist
Trying to find exactly what I miss
It's just another day without you
Why can't you stay forever?
Just give me a reason, give me a reason

In the days of my youth, I was told what it means to be a man,
Now I've reached that age, I've tried to do all those things the best I can.
No matter how I try, I find my way into the same old jam.

*Good Times, Bad Times, you know I had my share;
When my woman left home for a brown eyed man,
Well, I still don't seem to care.

Sixteen, I fell in love with a girl as sweet as could be,
Only took a couple of days 'til she was rid of me.
She swore that she would be all mine and love me till the end,
But when I whispered in her ear, I lost another friend, oooh.

* Chorus

I know what it means to be alone, I sure do wish I was at home.
I don't care what the neighbors say, I'm gonna love you each and every day.
You can feel the beat within my heart.
Realize, sweet babe, we ain't ever gonna part.

Ah, ah,
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 threshing oar, Our only goal will be the western shore.

Ah, ah,
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 threshing 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 of all your losing.

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.
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying
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.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, 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 standing looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really 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 ev'rything 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.

had a dream. Crazy dream.
Anything I wanted to know,
any place I needed to go

Hear my song.
People won't you listen now? Sing along.
You don't know what you're missing now.
Any little song that you know
Everything that's small has to grow.
And it has to grow!

California sunlight,
sweet Calcutta rain
Honolulu starbright
the song remains the same.

Sing out Hare Hare, dance the Hoochie Koo.
City lights are oh so bright,
as we go sliding... sliding... sliding through.

In the evening, When the day is done
I'm looking for a woman, but the girl don't come
So don't let her, Play you for a fool
She don't show no pity baby, she don't make no rules
Oh, oh, I need your love, I need your love
Oh, I need your love, I just got to have
So don't you let her, Oh, get under your skin
It's only bad luck and trouble, From the day that you begin
I hear you crying in the darkness, Don't ask nobody's help
Ain't no pockets full of mercy baby,
Cause you can only blame yourself
Oh, oh, I need your love, I need your love
Oh, I need your love, I just got to have
Oh it's simple, All the pain that you go through
You can turn away from fortune, fortune,
Cause that's all that's left to you
It's lonely at the bottom, Man, it's dizzy at the top
But if you're standing in the middle,
Ain't no way you're gonna stop
Oh, oh, I need your love, I need your love
Oh, I need your love, I just got to have
- 연 주 중 -
Oh whatever that your days may bring
No use hiding in a corner, Cause that won't change a thing
If you're dancing in the doldrums,
One day soon, it's got to stop, it's got to stop
When you're the master of the off-chance,
When you don't expect a lot
Oh, oh, I need your love,
I just got to have
Oh, oh, I need your love
Oh, I need your love, I just got to have

Working from seven
to eleven every night
It really makes life a drag
I don't think that's right

I've really been the best of fools
I did what I could, yeah
Cause I love you, baby
How I love you, darling
How I love you, baby
How I love you, girl, little girl

Baby, since I've been loving you
I'm about to lose my worried mind

Everybody trying to tell me
That you didn't mean me no good
I've been trying
Lord, let me tell you, let me tell you
I really did the best I could

I've been working from seven
to eleven every night
I said It kinda makes my life a drag
Lord, that ain't right, no no!

Since I've been loving you
I'm about to lose my worried mind

간주

Said I been crying, yeah
Oh my tears they felt like rain
Don't you hear them?
Don't you hear them falling?
Don't you hear them?
Don't you hear them falling?

Do you remember, mama
When I knocked upon your door?
I said you had the nerve to tell me
You didn't want me no more, yeah

I open my front door
Hear my back door slam
You know I must have
one of them new fangled
new fangled back door, man

I've been working from seven
to eleven every night
It kinda makes my life a drag

Ah yeah, it makes a drag
Baby, since I've been loving you
I'm about to lose
I'm about to lose, lose my worried mind

Just one more, just one more oh yeah
Since I've been loving you
I'm about to lose my worried mind

Lyin', cheatin', hurtin, that's all you seem to do.
Messin' around with every guy in town,
Puttin' me down for thinkin' of someone new.
Always the same, playin' your game,
Drive me insane, trouble is gonna come to you,
One of these days and it won't be long,
You'll look for me but baby, I'll be gone.
This is all I gotta say to you woman:

*Your Time Is Gonna Come X4

Made up my mind to break you this time,
Won't be so fine, it's my turn to cry.
Do want you want, I won't take the brunt.
It's fadin' away, can't feel you anymore.
Don't care what you say 'cause I'm goin' away to stay,
Gonna make you pay for that great big hole in my heart.
People talkin' all around,
Watch out woman, no longer
Is the joke gonna be on my heart.
You been bad to me woman,
But it's coming back home to you.

*Repeat

Bright light almost blinding,
black night still there shining,
I can't stop, keep on climbing,
looking for what I knew.

Had a friend, she once told me,
"You got love, you ain't lonely,"
Now she's gone and left me only looking for what I knew.

Mmm, 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

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

So anytime somebody needs you,
don't let them down, although it grieves you,
Some day you'll need someone like they do,
looking for what you knew.

Mmm, 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.

Her face is cracked from smiling,
all the fears that she's been hiding,
And it seems pretty soon everybody's gonna know.
And her voice is sore from shouting,
cheering winners who are losing,
And she worries if their days are
few and soon they'll have to go.

* My, my, my, I'm so happy,
I'm gonna join the band,
We are gonna dance and sing in celebration,
We are in the promised land.

She hears them talk of new ways
to protect the home she lives in,
Then she wonders what
it's all about when they break down the door.

Her name is Brown or White or Black,
you know her very well,
You hear her cries of mercy
as the winners toll the bell.

* Repeat

There is a train that leaves
the station heading for your destination,
But the price you pay to
nowhere has increased a dollar more.
Yes, it has!
And if you walk you're gonna get there
though it takes a little longer,
And when you see it in the distance
you will wring your hands and moan.
