i wont say much about the song, except it's one of my favourites... :D
I'll post here the correct lyrics since James changed it a bit:
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
With your face sketched on it twice
You're my blood, you're my holy wine
You taste so bitter and so sweet
Oh I could drink a case of you darling
I would still be on my feet
Oh I would 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 the time you told me
"Love was touching souls"
But surely you touched mine
'Cause part of you pours out of me
In these lines from time to time
You're my blood, you're my holy wine
You taste so bitter and so sweet
(...)
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"
