Last week one of the founding members of the iconic band he Grateful Dead, bassist Phil Lesh, passed away on October 25 at the age of 84 (!). We want to honor his legacy with a beautiful song he co- wrote with lyricist Robert Hunter, and on which he sang the lead -- "Box of Rain" from the 1970 album "American Beauty." R.I.P.
What do you want me to doTo do for you to see you through?For this is all a dream we dreamedOne afternoon long ago...
And it's just a box of rainI don't know who put it thereBelieve it if you need itOr leave it if you dare
And it's just a box of rainOr a ribbon for your hairSuch a long, long time to be goneAnd a short time to be there
