A box of wine will ease the pain and love will see you through
Look out of any window
any morning, any evening, any day
Maybe the sun is shining
birds are winging or
wine 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 box of wine will ease the pain
and love will see you through

Just a box of wine -
wind and water -
Believe it if you need it,
if you don't just pass it on
Sun and shower -
Wind and wine -
in and out the window
like a moth before a flame

It's just a box of wine
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 wine
or a ribbon for your hair
Such a long long time to be gone
and a short time to be there

3. My name is August West, and I love my Pearly Baker best more than my box of wine.
More than my box of wine - more than my maker, though he's no friend of mine.


I had to use teh google for this one. But Wharf Rat is an awesome tune.
:fistbump:

6. You're in my blood like holy wine
You're so bitter, baby, and so sweet
I could drink a case of you
Still I'd be on my feet
I would still be on my feet

Joni Mitchell

9. THANK YOU!
I was worried I had slipped the bonds of universe A where the Dead sing of a Box of Rain and fallen into some parallel yet inferior universe where lyrics become trite

or something.
