[Intro]
[Verse]
Look out of any window
Any morning, any evening, any day
Maybe the sun is shining
Birds are winging, no rain is falling from a heavy sky
[Chorus]
What do you want me to do
To do for you to see you through?
For this is all a dream we dreamed
One afternoon, long ago
[Verse]
Walk out of any doorway
Feel your way, feel your way like the day before
Maybe you ll find direction
Around some corner, where it s been waiting to meet you
[Chorus]
What do you want me to do
To watch for you while you re sleeping?
Then please don t be surprised
When you find me dreaming too
[Instrumental]
[Verse]
Walk into splintered sunlight
Inch your way through dead dreams to another land
Maybe you re tired and broken
Your tongue is twisted with the words half spoken and the thoughts unclear
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
Just a box of rain, wind and water
Believe in it if you need it
If you don t just pass it on
Sun and shower, wind and rain
In and out the window
Like a moth before the flame
And it s just a box of rain
I don t know who put it there
Believe it if you need it
Or leave it if you dare
And it s 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
