Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Just before our love got lost, you said
"I am as constant as the Northern Star"
Then 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 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
Taste so bitter and so sweet
Oh, I could drink a case of you, darling
And I would still be on my feet
I would still be on my feet
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
I remember that time you told me
"Love is touching souls"
Surely you touched mine, 'cause
Part of you pours outta me
In these lines from time to time
[Verse 6]
You're 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
I would still be on my feet
[Verse 7]
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
But be prepared to bleed"
[Verse 8]
Oh, but you're 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
I would still be on my feet
