Tea For One
How come twenty four hours, baby sometimes seem to slip into days?
Oh twenty-four hours, baby sometimes seem to slip into days
A minute seems like a lifetime, baby when I feel this way
Sittin, lookin at the clock
Time moves so slow
I've been watchin for the hands to move
Until I just can't look no more
How come twenty four hours, Baby sometimes seems to slip into days?
A minute seems like a lifetime, Baby when I feel this way.
To sing a song for you
I recall you used to say
"Oh baby this one's for we two"
Which in the end is you anyway
How come twenty four hours, Baby sometimes slip into days?
A minute seems like a lifetime, baby when I feel this way.
There was a time that I stood tall
In the eyes of other men
But by my own choice I left you woman
And now I can't get back again
How come twenty-four hours, sometimes slip into days?
A minute seems like a lifetime, Baby when I feel this way
A minute seems like a lifetime
When I feel this way...I feel this way
Then as it was, then again it will be
Changes fill my time, baby, that's alright with me
Did you ever really need somebody, And really need 'em bad
Through the eyes an' I sparkle, Senses growing keen
Vixen in my dreams, with great surprise to me
I'm never gonna leave you. I never gonna leave
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
Kind woman, I give you my all, Kind woman, nothing more.
Little drops of rain whisper of the pain, tears of loves lost in the
days gone by.
And so today, my world it smiles, your hand in mine, we walk the miles,
I don't know how I'm gonna tell you, I can't play with you no more,
And when I'm out I see you walking, Why don't your eyes see me,
That's The Way, Oh, That's The Way it ought to be,
And yesterday I saw you standing by the river,
And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers,
I don't know what to say about it,
That's the way... That's the way it oughtta be
I wanna tell you bout my good thing
I ain't gonna tell you nothing I ain't gonna no more, no!
Excuse me
(Have you seen the bridge?)
(Where's that confounded bridge?) (spoken by Robert Plant)
Singing in the sunshine, laughing in the rain
Singing to an ocean, I can hear the ocean's roar
Sitting round singing songs 'til the night turns into day
I've been to London, seen seven wonders. I know to trip is just to fall
If we could just join hands (X3)
Traversed the planet when heaven sent me. I saw the kings who rule them
all
If we could just join hands (X3)
You got me rockin' when I ought to be a-rollin'
Oh how I wonder, oh how I worry and I would dearly like to know
If we could just join hands.
Grease me down, good electric
Oh, trouble free transmission puncture to explode
Take that heavy metal underneath your hood
Automobile club covered, really built in style
Factory air conditioned, took me by surprise
Groovin' on the freeway, drivin' on the road
I can't stop talkin' about
Come to me for service every hundred miles
Fully automatic, comes in any size
Oh, baby, like suspension I just couldn't hold
I can't stop talkin' about love
Wanton Song
Silent woman in the night, you came, Took my seed from my shaking frame.
Silent woman through the flames, you come, From the deep behind the
sun
With blazing eyes you see my trembling hand.
Is it every time I fall, That I think this is the one
Silent woman, my face is changed
And if I say to you tomorrow. Take my hand, child, come with me.
*Catch the wind, see us spin, sail away, leave today, way up high in
the sky.
And if you say to me tomorrow, oh what fun it all would be.
* Chorus
So if you wake up with the sunrise, and all your dreams are still as
new,
* Chorus
Oh the wind wont blow and we really shouldn't go and it only goes to
show.
If it keeps on rainin', levee's goin' to break, (X2)
Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan, (X2)
Don't it make you feel bad
Cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good,
All last night sat on the levee and moaned, (X2)
You need coolin', baby, I'm not foolin',
*Wanna Whole Lotta Love (X4)
You've been learnin', baby, I bean learnin',
* Chorus
You've been coolin', baby, I've been droolin',
* Chorus
Way down inside... woman... You need... love.
Shake for me, girl. I wanna be your backdoor man.
Ten Years Gone
An' though the course may change sometimes
Rivers always reach the sea
Blind stars of fortune, each have several rays
On the wings of maybe, down in birds of prey
Kind of makes me feel sometimes, didn't have to grow
But as the eagle leaves the nest, it's got so far to go
In the midst I think of you, and how it used to be
Did you ever really want somebody, The best love you ever had
Do you ever remember me, baby, did it feel so good
'Cause it was just the first time, And you knew you would
Taste your love along the way, See your feathers preen
Kind of makes makes me feel sometimes, Didn't have to grow
We are eagles of one nest, The nest is in our soul
Never thought I'd see your face the way it used to be
Oh darlin', oh darlin'
Holdin' on, ten years gone
Ten years gone, holdin' on, ten years gone
Thank You
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.
My love is strong, with you there is no wrong,
together we shall go until we die. My, my, my.
An inspiration is what you are to me, inspiration, look... see.
Thanks to you it will be done, for you to me are the only one.
Happiness, no more be sad, happiness....I'm glad.
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.
That's The Way
I don't know how I'm gonna do what mama told me, My friend, the boy
next door.
I can't believe what people saying, You're gonna let your hair hang
down,
I'm satisfied to sit here working all day long, You're in the darker
side of town.
Could it be you've found another game to play, What did mama say to
me.
Yeah, yeah, mama say That's The Way it ought to stay.
And weren't those tears that filled your eyes,
And all the fish that lay in dirty water dying,
Had they got you hypnotized?
But all that lives is born to die.
And so I say to you that nothing really matters,
And all you do is stand and cry.
When all you ears have turned away,
But now's the time to look and look again at what you see,
Is that the way it ought to stay?
Oh don't you know now, Mama said.. that's the way it's gonna stay,
yeah.

The Ocean
Hitting on the moonshine, rocking in the grain
Ain't no time to pack my bag, my foots outside the door
Got a date, I can't be late, for the high hopes hailla ball.
Play for free, play for me and play a whole lot more, more!
Singing about good things and the sun that lights the day
I used to sing on the mountains, has the ocean lost it's way.
Used to sing on the mountains but the mountains washed away
Now I'm singing all my songs to the girl who won my heart
She is only three years old and it's a real fine way to start.
The Rover
I used to rock it, sometimes I'd roll it. I always knew what it was
for.
There can be no denyin' that the wind 'll shake 'em down
And the flat world's flyin'. There's a new plague on the land
Still by the firelight and purple moonlight. I hear the rested rivers
call
And the wind is crying, from a love that won't grow cold
My lover, she is lying, on the dark side of the globe
Darlin', tell me, darlin', which way to go
You keep me rockin', baby, then you keep me stolen
Won't you tell me, darlin', which way to go... that's right
I've all this wonder of earthly plunder will it leave us anything to
show
And our time is flyin' see the candle burnin' low
Is the new world rising, from the shambles of the old
Trampled Underfoot
I could lay it on the road, mama, it ain't no trick
*Talkin' 'bout love, talkin' 'bout love
Talkin' 'bout
Mama let me pump your gas
Mama let me do it all
*
Baby, I could rev all night, leave a big pile of tubes
*
Special tradition, mama, come feast your eyes
*
Guaranteed to run for hours, mama, brand new tires
*
From now on my gasoline is gonna be free of lead
*
I can't stop talkin' about, oh yes, drive on
Baby, let me change your valves, fix your overdrive
*
Makes me wonder what I did before I got synchronized
*
I'm so glad I took a look inside you showroom door
*
I can't stop talkin' about love
Oh, let me let it down
Oh, let me let it down
I can't stop talkin' about
I can't stop talkin' about love, my baby . . .
Same old fire, another flame, And the wheel rolls on.
Seems my nightmares, have just begun
Left me barely holding on.
When we know the time has come
Lose my senses, lose command
Feel your healing rivers run
In the darkness can you hear me call
Another day has just begun.
Some know in ways to come.
Feel my fire needs a brand new flame
And the wheels rolls on.... rolls on.
What Is And What Should Never Be
It's to a castle I will take you, where what's to be, they say will
be.
But the wind won't blow, you really shouldn't go, it only goes to show
That you will be mine, by takin' our time.
Then what's to stop us, pretty baby. But What Is And What Should Never
Be.
And happiness is what you need so bad, girl, the answer lies with you.
Catch the wind, we're gonna see it spin, we're gonna...sail, little
girl
do do do, bop bop a do-oh, my my my my my my yeah.
Everybody I know seems to know me well
but they're never gonna know that I move like hell.
When The Levee Breaks
When The Levee Breaks I'll have no place to stay.
Got what it takes to make a mountain man leave his home,
Oh, well, oh, well, oh, well.
When you're tryin' to find your way home,
You don't know which way to go?
If you're goin' down South
They go no work to do,
If you don't know about Chicago.
Now, cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good,
When the levee breaks, mama, you got to move.
Thinkin' about me baby and my happy home.
Going, going to Chicago... Going to Chicago... Sorry but I can't take
you...
Going down... going down now... going down....
Whole Lotta Love
I'm gonna send you back to schoolin',
Way down inside honey, you need it,
I'm gonna give you my love,
I'm gonna give you my love.
All them good times, baby, baby, I've been yearnin',
Way, way down inside honey, you need it,
I'm gonna give you my love... I'm gonna give you my love.
All the good times I've been misusin',
Way, way down inside, I'm gonna give you my love,
I'm gonna give you every inch of my love,
Gonna give you my love.
Keep it coolin', baby.
