Achilles Last Stand

  • Led Zeppelin

It was an April morning when they told us we should goAs I turn to you, you smiled at meHow could we say no?

Oh, the fun to haveTo live the dreams we always hadOh, the songs to singWhen we at last return again

Slipping off a glancing kissTo those who claim they knowBelow the streets that steam and hissThe devil's in his hole

Oh, to sail awayTo sandy lands and other daysOh, to touch the dreamHides inside and never seen, yeah

Into the sun, the south, the northAt last the birds have flownThe shackles of commitment fellIn pieces on the ground

Oh, to ride the windTo tread the air above the dinOh, to laugh aloudDancing as we fought the crowds, yeah

To seek the man whose pointing handThe giant step unfoldsWith guidance from the curving pathThat churns up into stone

If one bell should ringIn celebration for a kingSo fast the heart should beatAs proud the head with heavy feet, yeah

Days went by when you and IBathed in eternal summer's glowAs far away and distantOur mutual child did grow

Oh the sweet refrainSoothes the soul and calms the painOh Albion remainsSleeping now to rise again

Wandering and wanderingWhat place to rest the search?The mighty arms of AtlasHold the heavens from the earth

For the mighty arms of AtlasHold the heavens from the earthFrom the earth

I know the way, know the way, know the way, know the wayI know the way, know the way, know the way, know the way

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh ohOh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh

Ah, ah, ah, ahAh, ah, ah, ahAh, ah, ah, ahAh, ah, ah, ahAh, ah, ah, ah

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh ohOh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh ohOh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh

For the mighty arms of AtlasHold the heavens from the earth

Ah, ah, ah, ahAh, ah, ah, ahAh, ah, ah, ahAh, ah, ah, ah
