well that must be Meatloaf "I would do anything for love"

last 2 lines did it for me.

Correct!

I'm a little surprised you didn't give the full title-

"I Would Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That)".

I was alluding to that. There's 5 things he says he won't do in the song.

I quoted the last 2.

"After a while you'll forget everything.

It was a brief interlude and a midsummer night's fling.

And you'll see that it's time to move on"

"I won't do that.

I won't do that."

"I know the territory, I've been around-

It'll all turn to dust and we'll all fall down.

Sooner or later you'll be screwing around."

"I won't do that

No, I won't do that."

Sorry it's taken so long for me to get back, Power still out here in Louisville for 200,000. So finding electricity is a adventure.

New Song. If you are sure of your response just go ahead I'm not sure when I can respond and confirm.

You were caught on the crossfire

Of childhood and stardom,

Blown on the steel breeze.

Come on you target for faraway laughter,

Come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine!

"Well they say your folks are telling you to be a superstar,

But I tell you just be satisfied to stay right where you are."

"Well I've loved a million women in a belladonic haze,

And I ate a million dinners brought to me on silver trays.

Give me ev'rything I need to feed my body and my soul

And I'll grow a little bigger-maybe that can be my goal."

"Do you think you're better ev'ry day?

No I just think I'm two steps nearer to my grave."

"Take you all your time and money-

Honey you'll survive."

I was told a million times of all the people in my way.

How I had to keep on trying and get better ev'ry day.

But if I crossed a million rivers and I rode a million miles

Then I'd still be where I started, same as when I started."

"I was told a million times of all the troubles in my way.

Tried to grow a little wiser, little better ev'ry day.

But if I crossed a million rivers and I rode a million miles

Then I'd still be where I started- bread and butter for a smile.

Well I sold a million mirrors in a shop in Alley Way,

But I never saw my face in any window any day.

So you think your schoolings phoney

I guess it's hard not to agree

You say its all depends on money

or who is in your family tree

....

...

Me, I dont care anyway!

Write your problems down in detail

Take them to a higher place

You've had your cry- no I should say wail

In the meantime hush your face
