[Verse 1]
Just before our ship got lost, you said
"I am as constant as a northern star"
And I said, "You're just as silly as a northern fish
And if you want me I'll be in the bar"
On the back of a cartoon coaster pad
That didn't make me laugh at all
I drew a map of Canada
Oh, Canada
And I charted our last squall
[Chorus]
Oh, you are in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter and so sweet
Oh, I could drink a case of you, darling
And I'd still be on my feet
I would still be on my feet
[Verse 2]
Oh, I am a lonely painter
I live in a box of paint
I'm frightened by the devil
And I'm scared to death by saints
I remember when you told me "love is touching souls"
Surely you touched mine, you know
'Cause part of you pours out of me
In black and white designs
