Practical Magic movie - A Case of You lyrics

rate me

Song by Joni Mitchell<br /><br>

Just before our love got lost you said,<br>

"I am as constant as a northern star."<br>

And I said, "Constantly in the darkness<br>

Where's that at?<br>

If you want me I'll be in the bar."<br>

On the back of a cartoon coaster<br>

In the blue TV screen light<br>

I drew a map of Canada<br>

Oh Canada<br>

With your face sketched on it twice<br>

Oh, you're in my blood like holy wine<br>

You taste so bitter and so sweet<br>

Oh I could drink a case of you, darling<br>

And I would still be on my feet<br>

Oh I would still be on my feet<br>

<br>

Oh I am a lonely painter<br>

I live in a box of paints<br>

I'm frightened by the devil<br>

And I'm drawn to those ones that ain't afraid<br>

I remember that time you told me, you said,<br>

"Love is touching souls"<br>

Surely you touched mine<br>

'Cause part of you pours out of me<br>

In these lines from time to time<br>

Oh, you're in my blood like holy wine<br>

You taste so bitter and so sweet<br>

Oh I could drink a case of you, darling<br>

Still, I'd be on my feet<br>

I would still be on my feet<br>

<br>

I met a woman<br>

She had a mouth like yours<br>

She knew your life<br>

She knew your devils and your deeds<br>

And she said,<br>

"Go to him, stay with him if you can<br>

But be prepared to bleed"<br>

Oh but you are in my blood<br>

You're my holy wine<br>

You're so bitter, bitter and so sweet<br>

Oh, I could drink a case of you, darling<br>

Still I'd be on my feet<br>

I would still be on my feet<br>

<br>
