So you crashed 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 a child of clay

Whatever you do
I love you anyway
