if the body is a vessel i carry you with me everywhere through the rain and across the oceans i carry you because you are all this vessel has to keep from drowning let your hands pull me up from the holy water kiss me in spite of sunday kiss me in spite of everything breathe life back into this body breathe into this sail i hold take me anywhere but up kiss me in spite of heaven kiss me to find it let this love hit your jawbone and crack the stained glass blue and red and gold reflecting on our uncovered bodies vessels two lights burning despite the rain despite the storm brewing in the distance i carry you send me to sea send me to see more than this brown-gray confessional i carry you with me everywhere through the church and up the aisle i carry you because you are all this vessel has to keep from sinking

if the body is a vessel
if the body is a vessel i carry you with me everywhere through the rain and across the oceans i carry you because you are all this vessel has to keep from drowning let your hands pull me up from the holy water kiss me in spite of sunday kiss me in spite of everything breathe life back into this body breathe into this sail i hold take me anywhere but up kiss me in spite of heaven kiss me to find it let this love hit your jawbone and crack the stained glass blue and red and gold reflecting on our uncovered bodies vessels two lights burning despite the rain despite the storm brewing in the distance i carry you send me to sea send me to see more than this brown-gray confessional i carry you with me everywhere through the church and up the aisle i carry you because you are all this vessel has to keep from sinking
