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 Taste so 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 [intro progression]
I met a woman, she had a mouth like yours She knew your lies 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, baby 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 [intro progression]
