The song was Paradise by the Dashboard
I couldn't take it any longer
Lord I was crazed
And when the feeling came upon me
Like a tidal wave
I started swearing to my God and on my mother's
Grave
That I would love you to the end of time
I swore that I would love you to the end of time!
So now I'm praying for the end of time
To hurry up and arrive
Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you
I don't think that I can really survive
I'll never break my promise or forget my vow
But God only knows what I can do right now
I'm praying for the end of time
It's all that I can do
Praying for the end of time, so I can end my time
With you!!!

Of course then I said that at least he keeps to his promise (laugh).

Hmm...that's why I am careful about making promises. I've never broken my word in my life...not even as a child...and I don't intend to start any time soon.
His inability to keep his word, coupled with a distinct lack of honesty (I swear, he's allergic to the truth!!) were largely what caused me to divorce my now-ex-husband. Really, who promises to clean the cat box? And then doesn't? And wonders why his word is meaningless??
Meanwhile, I like Meatloaf - he throws his all into his music, and I admire that kind of performer!

That's a great song, even though "integrity" may not be the first word that comes to mind about a rock and roll artist who was unknown until he was in THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW.
That song certainly takes me back. I wonder if kids today even use the baseball analogy. "I got to second base last night." Or if they just go straight to what Bill Clinton taught them - and what base is THAT?
Of course although he remains married to her, he's broken his promise to love her. Obviously that's long gone.
