Diana Krall - A Case Of You Lyrics






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 are in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter and you taste so sweet
Oh, I could drink a case of you, darling
And I'd still be on my feet
I'd 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
"Love is touching souls"
Well 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
I could drink a case of you, darling
And I'd still be on my feet
I'd 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, you are in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter and you taste so sweet
Oh, I could drink a case of you, darling
And I'd still be on my feet
I'd still be on my feet.

Diana Krall A Case Of You Comments
  1. S.... J....

    Wish Diana would record a Joni album...just imagine what she could do with Paprika Plains!!!

  2. B.... V....

    That is *** such*** high quality song writing........on a totally different Level ........

    The sound recording quality is also very high............and it's a dynamic eclectic performance

    many thanks (that it's here avaialble) .

  3. E.... R....

    what beautiful phrasing of a lyrical masterpiece.................

  4. B.... ....

    She is brilliant.Not a rusted on fan I have this in vinyl LP it is just sublime.
    She hit the pedals hard that how good the playback is on that Album.

  5. A.... J....

    What a sensitive reading of the inimitable masterpiece. Do I detect sly references to Court and Spark? So sweet indeed.

    A.... J....

    YES! I noticed it too. Such a nod to Ms. Mitchell. And...Oh Canada national anthem.

  6. M.... V....

    Ana Moura has a better version.....

  7. J.... M....

    This rendition is fabulous. I came to YouTube looking for Prince playing piano singing Joni Mitchell's classic... Which I LOVE.

  8. S.... V....

    Love it!!

  9. R.... T....

    How lovely

  10. A.... C....

    Love it, still prefer Live In Paris rendition, when she goes down into the cellar register singing the word "Bleed". Not here. Older and wiser to be sure, granted. But get the feeling she mailed this one in as opposed to #really digging deep for her performance of it in Paris. All that said...without Ms. Mitchell, there #would be no Diana performing this AT ALL. Much props to the author.

  11. S.... J....

    I don't think anyone sings this song better than Diana Krall. Sorry Joni!

  12. T.... E....

    Just doesn’t have the magic of Joni or Tori Amos

    Nice version, so lovely deep voice. But Joni’s original version is so perfect, it is hard to get to that, however I enjoy this one.

  34. D.... M....

    This song simply belongs to JONI...

  35. D.... M....

    not impressed with this cover. Too spoken and UNSUNG.

    D.... M....

    Hope you find some soul

    D.... M....

    It would be boring to do a copy...... but this is no copy This is her take on Joni song . It's fab

  36. p.... ....

    I'd have liked to hear Aretha Franklin attempt this back in the day

  37. t.... ....

    Just so damn good from start to finish.

  38. D.... P....

    I Love her music. It fills me.

  39. F.... M....

    Joni Mitchell x Diana Krall: the perfect match.

  40. G.... N....

    Nobody else has touched the essence of this song more closely than its composer. Many have tried.

    G.... N....

    But this was pretty close... beautiful

    G.... N....

    Agree with you. This is a lovely version, but Joni’s is so perfect.

    G.... N....

    Gary N. Reese when someone becomes Music itself this magic happens ...

  41. M.... ....

    She's like female Tom Waits in this song

  42. j.... ....

    my god. what a beautiful cover

  43. t.... l....

    You can look everywhere on YouTube it is simply the best cover off all time for this song...

  46. P.... S....

    WOW!!! I could drink a case of this...
