As You Lean Into The Light Lyrics

Paul Weller

Gentle rain
Here it comes again
Rattling 'round your windowthreatening pain
Coming on like a friendbut you know better than
Yesterday that held you by a different hand
Hail and stone
And all that's gone
When everything that passescuts to the bone
Turning like a wheel dragging a heavy stone


A weight that ties you down that you will never own

Strange to seea paper smile on thee
When once you moved and light the room
For us all to be
Now if I could be the sun I'd shine in your life
If I could be the rainI'd rain from your eyes
And I'd wash away the emptiness you feel inside
