You're The Perfume, I'm The Jar from 1974 album Paid on the Nail.
Explores the deep connection between the believer and Christ through vivid metaphors. The song portrays Jesus as the source of security, guidance, and transformation - He is the Shepherd to the stray, the tree to the branch, and the rain to the desert.
You’re the castle, I’m the keep
In your walls I safely sleep
I’m the branch and You’re the tree
I’m part of You, You’re part of me
You’re the Shepherd I’m the stray
Losing You I lose my way
Finding You I’ll find my place
in the shining of your face
