A Case of You

Just before our love got lost you said,
 "I am as constant as a northern star"
 And I said,
 "Constantly in the darkness, well where the hell'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
 Oh Canada
 With your face sketched on it twice
 You're in my blood like holy wine
 You taste so bitter and so sweet
 And I could drink a case of you darling
 I would still I'd be on my feet
 I would still be on my feet
 Oh I'm a lonely painter
 I live in a box of paints
 And I'm frightened by the devil
 And I'm drawn to those ones who ain't afraid
 Remember that time you told me that
 "Love is touching souls"
 Clearly you touched mine
 'Cause part of you pours out in me
 In these lines from time to time
 You're in my blood like holy wine
 You taste so bitter and... and so sweet
 Oh I could drink a case of you darlin'
 And I would still be on my feet
 I would still be on my feet
 I met a man
 Who had a mouth like yours he knew your lie
 He knew your devils and your deeds
 And he said,
 "Go to her, and stay with her if you can,
 But be... be prepared to bleed"
 You're in my blood
 Like holy wine
 And you taste so bitter and so sweet
 And I could drink a case of you
 Oh... darlin'
 And I would still be on my feet
 I would still be on my feet
 ...Still be on my feet
