A Case Of You
(专辑: Both Sides Now - 2000)
Just before our love got lost you said "I am as 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 TV-screen light I
drew a
map of Canada Oh, Canada And I
sketched your face on it twice Oh, you're in my blood like holy wine Oh and you taste so bitter but you taste so sweet Oh, I
could drink a
case of you I
could drink a
case of you, darling Still I'd be on my feet I'd still be on my feet 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 I
remember that time that you told me You said, "Love is touching souls" Surely you touched mine 'Cause part of you pours out of me In these lines from time to time Oh, you're in my blood like holy wine And you taste so bitter and you taste so sweet I
could drink a
case of you I
could drink a
case of you, darling Still I'd be on my feet I'd still be on my feet 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" Oh, but you are in my blood You're my holy wine Oh, and you taste so bitter but you taste so sweet I
could drink a
case of you darling And still I'd be on my feet Still I'd be on my feet
