When I Saw Gods: a Led Zeppelin Tribute

Light fell upon a wall And I began to run: Someone sang about Kashmir, Of Valley, stars and Sun... The sound came from a certain Quarter But I wasn't so sure; As I battled down the Stairway, A voice echoed, "...Evermore"... And soon enough, I heard one sing In a fine, familiar tone: Friends, my eyes cherished this scene, Which was a Wonderful One... Imagine the ecstasy I felt, When I saw what I saw: Plant sang some unknown ballad-- I stood gaping in awe... Yes, he stood squirming and writhing In total melody; John and Jones hard at it, Increased further my ecstasy... I looked harder to spot out Page, The Devil, did he look grand With all his good ol'strings in place Bless this Rock 'n' Roll band... With every note they conjured, A raw pleasure was felt; I recall how passion surged through air, Through blood, and saw me melt... Melt I did, but before that, The earth began to shake; The Dancing Days were over I guess For I felt a Heartbreak... Dazed and Confused and dripping now, From an Ocean of pain; All just vanished in nothingness.. ....I tried to dream again.. All now was left was a memory that shone Of one Celebration Day, When I saw Gods live on stage, And common people pray....
