Escrita por Jimmy Page e Robert Plant, foi gravada em 1972, no Stargroves Studio, em East Woodhay, Inglaterra e lançada em 28 de março de 1973 no disco Houses of the Holy. Jimmy Page construiu a melodia na sua casa. Plant então fez a letra. Tem um mellotron tocado por John Paul Jones, enquanto Page uma guitarra Danelectro. Jimmy Page disse que foi feita pra George Harrison, que havia comentado com John Bonnar, dizendo que a banda não tinha nenhuma balada. Os dois primeiros acordes são iguais a “Something”.
A letra:
It
is the springtime of my loving
The second season I am to know
You
are the sunlight in my growing
So little warmth I've felt
before
It isn't hard to feel me glowing
I watched the fire that
grew so low, oh
It is the summer of my
smiles
Flee from me, keepers of the gloom
Speak to me only with
your eyes
It is to you I give this tune
Ain't so hard to
recognize, oh
These things are clear to all from time to time, ooh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh
Talk talk, talk,
talk
Hey, I felt the coldness of my winter
I never thought it
would ever go
I cursed the gloom that set upon us, 'pon us, 'pon
us,
But I know that I love you so
Oh, but I know
That I
love you so
These are the seasons
of emotion
And like the wind, they rise and fall
This is the
wonder of devotion
I see the torch
We all must hold
This is the mystery of
the quotient, quotient
Upon us all, upon us all a little rain must
fall
Just a little rain, oh
Ooh, yeah-yeah-yeah
