A Case of You

Just before our love got lost you said
I am as constant as a northern star
And I said, 'Constant in the darkness, wheres that at?
If you want me Ill be in the bar
On the back of a cartoon coaster
In the blue TV screen light
I drew a map of Canada, oh, Canada
And your face sketched on it twice
Oh, you are 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, Id still be on my feet
Oh, I am a lonely painter
I live in a box of paints
Im frightened by the devil
And Im drawn to those ones that aint afraid
I remember that time that 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 and you are in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter and so sweet
Oh, I could drink a case of you, darling
Still Id be on my feet, oh, Id still be on my feet
I met a woman, she had a mouth like yours
She knew your life
She knew your devils and your deeds and she said
Go to him, stay with him if you can, be prepared to bleed
Oh but you are in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter, bitter and so sweet
I could drink a case of you, darling
Still Id be on my feet, oh, Id still be on my feet, ooh
