Coachella - Woodstock In My Mind lyrics

I was at Coachella, leanin' on your shoulder
Watchin' your husband swing in time
I guess I was in it, 'cause, baby, for a minute
It was Woodstock in my mind
In the next mornin', they put out the warnin'
Tensions were rising over country lines
I turned off the music, tried to sit and use it
All of the love that I saw that night
'Cause what about all these children?
And what about all their parents?
And what about about all their crowns they wear
In hair so long like mine?
And what about all their wishes wrapped up like garland roses
Around their little heads?
I said a prayer for a third time
I'd trade it all for a stairway to heaven
(A stairway, stairway to heaven)
I'd take my time for the climb up to the top of it
(A stairway)
I'd trade the fame and the fortune and the legend
(A stairway)
I'd give it all away if you give me just one day
To ask Him one question
I'd give it all away if you give me just one day
To ask Him one question
I was at Coachella, leanin' on your shoulder
Watchin' your husband swing and shine
I'd say he was hella cool to win them over
Critics can be so mean sometimes
He was on his knees and I thought he was breakin' 'em down
With his words and his voice divine
Doesn't take a genius to know what you've got goin', and to
Not wanna lose it 'cause they lost their minds
What about all these children and all their children's children?
And why am I even wonderin' that today?
Maybe my contribution could be as small as hopin'
That words could turn to birds
And birds would send my thoughts your way
I'd trade it all for a stairway to heaven
(A stairway, stairway to heaven)
I'd take my time for the climb up to the top of it
(A stairway)
I'd trade the fame and the fortune and the legend
(A stairway)
I'd give it all away if you give me just one day
To ask Him one question
I'd give it all away if you give me just one day
To ask Him one question
(A stairway, stairway to heaven)
(A stairway)
Got a million things I wanna say
Like what's it all for? Will it be okay?
Million things I wanna say
Like what's it all for?
(Stairway, stairway to heaven)
(Stairway)
(Stairway, stairway to heaven)
(Stairway)
