《 Joni Mitchell - A Case Of You (04:24) 》

《 Joni Mitchell - A Case Of You (04:24) 》

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 

Oh you're in my blood like holy wine 

You taste so bitter and so sweet 

Oh I could drink a case of you darling 

Still I'd 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 that time 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 

You taste so bitter and so sweet 

Oh I could drink a case of you darling 

And I would still be on my feet 

I would 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 

You're so bitter, bitter and so sweet

Oh, I could drink a case of you darling 

Still I'd be on my feet 

I would still be on my feet
