The rain it started tapping	C
on the window near my bed	G
There was a loophole in my dreaming	F
so I got out of it	G
And to my surprise my eyes were wide	Am
and already open	F
Just my night stand and my dressoir	D
where those nightmares had just been	G
So I dressed myself and left them
out into the great streets
But everything seemed different
and completely new to me
The sky the trees, houses, buildings
even my own body
And each person i encountered
I couldn't wait to meet
And I came upon a doctor
who appeared in quite poor health
I said there's nothing that I can do for you
you can't do for yourself
He said, oh yes, you can just hold my hand
I think that that would help
So i sat with him a while
and I asked him how he felt
He said, I think I'm cured	F Em Am
No in fact I'm sure
Thank you stranger
for your therapeutic smile	G

So that's how I learned the lesson
that everyone's alone
And your eyes must do some raining
if you ever gonna grow
And when crying don't help you can't compose yourself
it is best to compose a poem
An honest verse of longing
or a simple song of hope
That's why i'm thinking baby don't worry
'cause now I got you back
And everytime you feel like crying
I will try and make you laugh
and if I can't if it just hurts too bad
then we'll wait for it to pass
and I'll keep you company
for those days so long and black
And we'll keep working on the problem
we know we'll never solve
??of love's uneven remain those alive
the fractions of the whole
But if the world could remain within a frame
like a painting on the wall,
then I think we'd see the beaty then
we'd stand staring in awe
At our still life's pose
like a bowl of oranges
like a story told
'bout the faulty lines and the soul
