Ah, one of my favorites is "Not Quite But Nearly", which you can find on Leon rosselson's Rosselsongs collection. I'm sorry I can't post lyrics; can't find them, and my mind is like a sieve when it comes to them ;( But the gist is basically that
the narrator would do outrageous things for his beloved ... and lists some very outrageous ones indeed ... "well, not quite, but nearly." :)
