Just before our love got lost you said   I am as constant as a northern star   And I said, constant 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   Oh canada   And your face sketched on it twice      Oh you are in my blood like holy wine   Oh and you taste so bitter but you taste so sweet   Oh I could drink a case of you   I could drink a case of you darling   And I would still be on my feet   Oh I’d 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 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 you are in my blood like holy wine   And you taste so bitter but you taste so sweet   Oh I could drink a case of you   I could drink a case of you darling   Still I’d be on my feet   And 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   Color go to him, stay with him if you can   Oh but be prepared to bleed   Oh but you are in my blood you’re my holy wine   Oh and you taste so bitter, bitter and so sweet   Oh I could drink a case of you darling   Still I’d be on my feet   I’d still be on my feet      Mmmmmmm
