ms_zeppelin94 Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Well Zep had plenty of great openers, but which ones do you love most? Mine (off the top of my head-I'm tired): "Been dazed & confused for so long it's not true..." "Oh let the sun beat down upon my face and stars to fill my dreams..." And of course, "I can't quit you bbaaabbbee!!!!" I'll post more as I remember.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~tangerine~ Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 This is one of my favorite lines because an old friend sang this to me while playing guitar. He had a beautiful voice and was very talented. "Hey lady, you've got the love i need" A few of many i love: 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.... It is the springtime of my loving, the second season i am to know... Then, as it was, then again it will be, though the course may change sometimes, rivers always reach the sea... Singing in the sunshine, laughing in the rain... I hear ya knock on my door, I ain't been saving this scene for ya honey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"If the sun refused to shine, I would still be lovin you" always makes think of Mom - she loves the song. "It was an April morning when they told us we should go, and as I turned to you, you smiled at me. How could we say no?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ninelives Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Some have already been mentioned... Measuring a summer's day. I only find it slips away into grey. Then as it was - then again it will be. And though the course may change sometimes. Rivers always reach the sea. Don't it feel so strange looking at the door? Trying hard to change, but can't let go.
