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
"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
