[Intro]
Just before our love got lost you said
I am as constant as a northern star and I said
Constantly in the darkness, where s that at?
If you want me I ll be in the bar
On the back of a cartoon coaster
In the blue TV screen light
I drew a map of Canada
With your face sketched on it twice
Oh, you re in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter and so sweet
Oh, I could drink a case of you darling and I would
Still be on my feet, oh I would still be on my feet
Oh I am a lonely painter
I live in a box of paints
I m frightened by the devil
And I m drawn to those ones that ain t afraid
I remember that time you told me, you said love is touching souls
Surely you touched mine cause
Part of you pours out of me
In these lines from time to time
Oh, you re in my blood like holy wine
Taste so bitter and so sweet
Oh, I could drink a case of you darling
Still I d be on my feet
I would still be on my feet [intro progression]
I met a woman, she had a mouth like yours
She knew your lies
She knew your devils and your deeds, and she said
Go to him, stay with him if you can
But be prepared to bleed
Oh but you are in my blood, you re my holy wine
You re so bitter, baby
Bitter and so sweet
Oh I could drink a case of you darling
Still I d be on my feet
I would still be on my feet [intro progression]
