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 you'll find direction
   Around some corner
   Where it's been waiting to meet you -
   What do you want me to do,
   To watch for you while you're sleeping?
   Well please don't be surprised
   When you find me dreaming too
  
   Look into any eyes
   You find by you, you can see
   Clear through to another day
   I know it's 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?
   It's all a dream we dreamed
   One afternoon long ago
  
   Walk into splintered sunlight
   Inch your way through dead dreams
   To another land
   Maybe you're 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 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 don't just pass it on
   Sun and shower -
   Wind and rain -
   In and out the window
   Like a moth before a flame
  
   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
   But 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
