Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Just before our love got lost you said
I am as constant as a norther star
And I said, constantly in the darkness
Where's that at? If you want me I'll be in the bar
[Verse 2]
On the back of a cartoon coaster
In the blue of a TV screen light
I drew a map of Canada, oh, Canada
With your face sketched on it twice
[Verse 3]
You're in my blood like holy wine
You're so bitter and so sweet
I could drink a case of you
I would still be on my feet
I would still be on my feet
[Verse 4]
I am a lonely painter
I live in a box of paints
I'm frightened by the devil
But I'm draw to those ones that ain't
[Verse 5]
I remember the time you told me, you said
Love is touching souls while surely you've touched mine
'Cause part of you pours our of me
In these lines from time to time
[Verse 6]
You're in my blood like holy wine
You're so bitter, baby, and so sweet
I could drink a case of you
And still I'd be on my feet
I'd still be on my feet
[Verse 7]
I met a woman, she had a mouth like yours
She your devils, she knew your deeds
And she said, go with it and stay with it
But be prepared to bleed
[Verse 8]
'Cause, you're in my blood like holy wine
You're so bitter, baby, and so sweet
I could drink a case of you, of you, darlin'
And still I'd be on my feet
I would still be on my feet
