[Verse]
Just before ou
r love got los
t you said "I
am as constant
as a northern
star"
And I said, "C
onstantly in t
he darkness
Where's that a
/
t? If you want
me I'll be in
the bar"
On the back of
a cartoon coa
/
ster, in the b
lue TV screen
light
I drew a map o
f Canada, oh C
a - na - d
a
With your face
sketched on i
t twice
[Chorus]
Oh, you’re in
my blood like
holy wine
You taste so b
itter and so s
weet
Oh I could dri
nk a case of y
ou, darling
And I would st
ill be on my f
/
eet, oh I woul
d still be on
my feet

[Verse]
Oh I am a lone
/
ly painter, I
live in a box
of paints
I'm frightened
by the devil
and I'm drawn
to those ones
that ain't afr
aid
I remember tha
t time that yo
u told me, you
said
"Love is touch
ing souls", su
rely you touch
ed mine
’Cause part of
you pours out
of me in thes
e lines from t
ime to time
[Chorus]
Oh, you’re in
my blood like
holy wine
You taste so b
itter and so s
weet
Oh I could dri
nk a case of y
ou, darling
Still I'd be o
n my feet, I w
ould still be
on my feet

[Verse]
I met a woman,
she had a mou
th like yours
She knew your
life, she knew
your devils a
nd your deeds
And she said "
Go to him, sta
y with him if
you can but be
prepared to b
leed"
[Chorus]
Oh but you are
in my blood,
you're my holy
wine
You're so bitt
er, bitter and
so sweet
Oh I could dri
nk a case of y
ou, darling
Still I'd be o
n my feet, I w
ould still be
on my feet
