Look out of any window
Any morning, any evening, any day
Maybe the sun is shining
Birds are winging or
Rain is falling from a heavy sky
What do you want me to do
To do for you to see you through?
This is all a dream we dreamed
One afternoon, long ago
Walk out of any doorway
Feel your way, feel your way
Like the day before
Maybe youll find direction
Around some corner
Where its been waiting to meet you
What do you want me to do
To watch for you while you are sleeping?
Well please dont be surprised
When you find me dreaming, too
Look into any eyes
You find by you, you can see
Clear through to another day
Maybe its been seen before
Through other eyes on other days
While going home
What do you want me to do
To do for you to see you through?
Its all a dream we dreamed
One afternoon long ago
Walk into splintered sunlight
Inch your way through dead dreams
To another land
Maybe youre tired and broken
Your tongue is twisted
With words half spoken
And thoughts unclear
What do you want me to do
To do for you to see you through?
A box of rain will ease the pain
And love will see you through
Just a box of rain
Wind and water
Believe it if you need it
If you dont just pass it on
Sun and shower, wind and rain
In and out the window
Like a moth before a flame
Its just a box of rain
I dont know who put it there
Believe it if you need it
Or leave it if you dare
But its just a box of rain, or a ribbon for your hair;
Such a long long time to be gone
And a short time to be there
