Love Anyway
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
So you crahed the plane
And there's hell to pay
I'm making it plain
I love you anyway
You made a fool
Out of me today
I'm breaking the rule
I love you anyway
You threw the blame
What a role to play!
My story's the same
I love you anyway
You dealt the blow
And you burst the ball
I'm letting you know
I love you most of all
Magic we chase - only to find
It comes from a place higher than mind
Higher than dust, but only just
It hangs on the cusp
I can hear you scream
Like a branded slave
It's only a dream
I love you anyway
You've got a war to wage
Chief to obey
Foe to engage
I love you anyway
You hunker down
Feeling small
Judging the clown
I love you most of all
I picture you with the eye of my mind
A portrait in blue, unravaged by time
Beauty undimmed and through your pale skin
The beauty within
So you beat the child
Sent him away
Beauty defiled
I love you anyway
You tricked the king
Cut him where he lay
Unthinkable thing
I love you anyway
You held the jewel
And you let it fall
Prince of a fool!
I love you most of all
Over the wind, under the hill
Wing upon wing, love over will
When the big me meets the big you
The things we will do!
I'll make the time
If you name the day
Trouble or shine
I love you anyway
I think of you
As child of clay
Whatever you do
I love yo anyway
