Tim O′Brien - The Perfect Place to Hide

Текст песни The Perfect Place to Hide

I won′t say it′ll work for you but I know it did for me
When I found myself a special place where I′m happy with all I see
Now I make each day to go my way with a slow and steady speed
With a jeweler′s eye I′ve chipped away at the things I don′t need

Started out with one sip and it really doesn′t take too long
′Til you lose your need to turn around it doesn′t seem so wrong
Drown your head in a whiskey cloud ′til you′re blind on every side
You never miss what′s going on it′s the perfect place to hide

Me I had a woman once, she said she′d see me through
But I guess I didn′t need her there was nothing that I could do
When she came up to me one day said it′s your drinkin′ ways or me
I can′t live my life with one who′s too sick from drink to see

Now she′s gone it′s just as well I can live my life my way
I′m a simple man I didn′t do her wrong, she just got in my way
There′s no trick to the harvest if you never plant a seed
And this bottle here beside my bed it′s the only friend I need

Started out with one sip and it really doesn′t take too long
′Til you lose your need to turn around it doesn′t seem so wrong
Drown your head in a whiskey cloud ′til you′re blind on every side
You never miss what′s going on it′s the perfect place to hide
