What's that one Zep line that......


Recommended Posts

As usual I was starting my day off having my coffee and some morning Zeppelin and In The Light (maybe my fave Zep tune) came on and it hit me, when they get to the "In The Light, everybody's needs the light" my heart sings! Again and again I fall in love with this band and their music. So the question is what line, or lines do that to you? Every time. For me another would be"Gonna leave her with the guitars playin"

I'd love to hear from you. Cheers from Montreal.

The mighty arms of Atlas
Hold the heavens from the earth
 
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
 
To be a rock and not to roll
 
All I see turns to brown
As the sun burns the ground
 
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
 
Workin' from seven to eleven every night
 
Oh, my tears they fell like rain

So many greats ones to choose from.

It was an April morning when they told us we should go
As I turn to you, you smiled at me
How could we say no?
Oh, the fun to have
To live the dreams we always had
Oh, the songs to sing
When we at last return again
 

Ah caught you smiling at me,
That's the way it should be,
Like a leaf is to a tree, so fine

As we walk down the country lanes,
I'll be singing a song, hear me calling your name
Hear the wind whiste in the trees,
Telling mother nature 'bout you and me

So of one thing I am sure,
It's a friendship so pure,
Angels singing all around My dog is so fine
Yeah, ain't but one thing to do
Spend my nat'ral life with you,
You're the finest dog I knew, so fine
When you're old and your eyes are dim,
There ain't no old shep gonna happen again,
We'll still go walking down country lanes,
I'll sing the same old songs, hear me call your name

As I turn to you, you smile at me, how could we say no?
From her eyes a different smile like that of one who knows

I took her word, I took it all, beneath the sign that said U-Haul 

Makes me wonder what I did before we synchronized

But all that lives is born to die
And our time is flying, see the candle burning low

Got no time for spreadin' roots, The time has come to be gone

I'll meet you up there where the path runs straight and high

In the Light you will find the road

That whole song is perfection. Zep's masterpiece if you ask me. And speaking as a guitar player, that solo is brilliant. Nice choice.

Always loved that U-Haul line. YeeeHaaa. Loved that they played it at Knebworth. 

And, "In The Light you will find the road", well, 👏👏

Sing loud for the sunshine

Pray hard for the rain.

I was on the Amalfi Coast and found a hidden beach and had a few Heinekens and listened to Physical. This song summed up my day perfectly. I will never forget it. Nice.

I could not agree more. Head and shoulders my favourite Zep tune.

"When I step out, strut down with my sugar

She'd best not talk like Barry White"

 

Not to toot my own horn, but back in the early daze of "the Internets," most lyric sites had that line as "she wears her cloak like fairy white," or something similar to that.  I figured Planty wouldn't write that, so I took a listen to Royal Orleans and heard the correct line.  I emailed a few of those lyric sites, and eventually the Barry White line became the standard. 

So, I'm, like, taking credit for that, man....😁
