Johnny and David, they sang about fame
While Jeremy spoke in his classroom today
And Eleanor Rigby, she died in the church
By the merciful sisters, last, always, and first
And Bobby blew smoke while he blew in the wind
While miss Joni loves Mitchell, they’re at it again
When I think we’re alone, it’s hard to tell the truth
Like the Gibbs I’ve just gotta get this message to you
I’ll love you through storms of the purplest rains
And I’ll love you like Clapton loved death and cocaine
I’ve loved you since Sting claimed to be king of pain
And I’ve loved you since Neil Young lived up to his name
Like Jerry I’m grateful, I’ll be ‘till I’m dead
Like Josh I’m designer, and sick in the head
Like Jim I’m amazed at the words that you say
Like James I can change just to have you today
Like Robert you make me feel like I am home
Like Freddy I’m crazy like the coldest of stones
Like Huey the power of love’s in the news
Like Paul I’m unsatisfied till I’m with you
I’ll love you through storms of the purplest rains
And I’ll love you like Clapton loved death and cocaine
I’ve loved you since Sting claimed to be king of pain
And I’ve loved you since Neil Young lived up to his name
I’ll do anything for love, I’ll even do that
And I’ll look back in anger until it looks back
I’ll burn from the inside ‘till it cuts me up
And I’ll be in the middle with you ‘till I’m stuck
I’ll love you through storms of the purplest rains
And I’ll love you like Clapton loved death and cocaine
I’ve loved you since Sting claimed to be king of pain
And I’ve loved you since Neil Young lived up to his name
I’ll love you until it tears us apart
And I’ll love you till totality eclipses my heart
I’ve loved you since Michael wanted something to start
And I’ve loved you since Bruce danced away in the dark
