Just when our love got lost you said that
You are constant as a northern star
And I said, “Constantly 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 screen of the TV light
I drew a map of Canada
O Canada, yeah
With your face sketched on it twice
You’re in my blood like holy wine
Love so bitter, baby, but oh so sweet
I could drink a case of you, darling
And I’d still be on my feet
I would still be on my feet
I’m just a lonely painter
I live here in my box of paints
I’m frightened by the devil
And I’m drawn to those who ain’t afraid
I remember once you told me
You said love was touching souls
Surely you touched mine
And part of you comes out of me
In these lines from time to time
You’re in my blood like holy wine
Love so bitter, baby, oh so sweet
I could drink a case of you, oh yes I could
Well I’d still be on my feet
I would still be on my feet
I knew a man who had a face like yours
And he knew each one of your dirty, dirty little deeds
And he said, “Go to her, stay with her if you can
But brother, be prepared to bleed”
You’re in my blood like holy wine
Love so bitter, baby, but oh so sweet
I could drink a case of you, darling
And I’d still be on my feet
I would still be on my feet
I would still be on my feet
Be on my feet
