Sweet - Stairway To The Stars Lyrics

(Connolly/Priest/Scott/Tucker)

The heroine's a hero
Upbraiding me to zero
I couldn't hold a candle to you
The hardest part is leaving
This web of love you weaving
You've shattered my illusions
I've come to the conclusion
You' re gonna do a number on me
I'll never get to heaven with you

There's a stairway to the stars
Heaven is a freeway into your arms
There's a stairway to the stars
Heaven is a freeway
Stairway to the stars

Girls in your condition
They ain't in no position
To do the things you're doing to me
You opened like a flower
You filled my head with power
Boys get avaricious
Feeling pretty vicious
So don't you paint your fingers for me
No, no, you'll never get to heaven with me (no way)

There's a stairway to the stars
Heaven is a freeway into your arms
There's a stairway to the stars
Heaven is a freeway
Stairway to the stars

Take the stairway to my heaven
Take your stairway to my heaven
Take your stairway to my heaven
Take your stairway to my heaven

There's a stairway to the stars
Heaven is a freeway into your arms
There's a stairway to the stars
Heaven is a freeway
Stairway to the stars
Stairway to the stars
Stairway to the stars
Stairway to the stars
