Lyrics
Perfect Vessel (female version) words and music Jimbeau Walsh (c) BMI
Some have no reason for living
Some have no reason to die
Some they are quite unforgiving
Wanting a slice out of life
CHORUS
It's hard to find somebody special
My friends they know how I tried
to fashion a perfect vessel
one that could hold you and I
Drove down to Austin to see you
We drank sweet wine and danced on moonbeams
You turned and whispered "I love you"
We were lost in the city of dreams
It's hard to find somebody special
My friends they know how I tried
to fashion a Perfect Vessel
one that could hold you and I
(BRIDGE)
No one came to awake us
We were so fast asleep
Slowly life did break us
and the pieces they're not much to keep
I think I'll head for the ocean
Follow some righteous old whale
Learn to live in perpetual motion
and die with my heart open sail
It's hard to find somebody special
My friends they know how I tried
to fashion a Perfect Vessel
one that could hold you and I
one that could hold you and I
