Here's my interpretation of #2.  Which judging by the lyrics, could very well be prostitute.
Seems like forever, and a day
If my intentions, are misunderstood
Please be kind, I've done all I should
I won't ask of you, what I would not do

Ooooh, I saw the damage in you
My fortunate one, the ending of you

Why would they tell me to please go, then laugh in my face
With all of the reasons they told us not over themselves to give way

It's not a question whether my heart is true
Streamline, I had to pull through
Look for a new, beginning on you

Ooooh, I got a message for you
Open a way, is what I've got to do
Give what you have, what you might lose

What would you say if I told you that I'm to blame
And what would you do if I had to deny your fame
Where would you go if I told you I love you and then walked away, oh yeah
Who should I turn to if not for the one, you could not save

I told you when I found you
If there were doubts, you should be careful and unafraid
Now they surround you, and all that amounts to is love that you paid for for fortune and fame

If my affections, are misunderstood
And you decide, I'm up, to no good
Don't ask me to, enjoy them, just for you

Ask yourself, what I would do, to prostitute, myself
To live with fortune and shame, oh yeah
When you should have turned to the hearts of the ones that you would not save, oh yeah
I told you when I found you, all that amounts to is love that you paid for for fortune and fame

Re: New song lyrics

It sounds like Axl is singing "the" rather than "a".

I'm sorry if people don't like it, but that's what I'm hearing.

Wow...  Dave, Rex and I agree on song lyrics!  16

"Like forever and a day" is an expression.  "Like forever and the day" is not, and really doesn't make sense.

Also, with how cheesy this opening is, it has to be forever and a day.

I did If the World too, and the only difference I have from Dave's is "and our love slipped away" instead of "and all loves slipped away."

I think it's definitely "a day".  That makes a lot more sense than "the day" or "today".  I still don't hear prostitute or prosecute though.  I don't know what the hell he says there.

You know what, I was gonna say I thought I heard something like bring me down, but after listening many times I don't hear "bring" either.  I hear ______ me down.  "Bring" would make the most sense but I just don't hear that.

Just listened to that part a couple more times and i for sure hear "Bring you down". 

The way he's singing it, it really sounds like "Bring you down".  Can't be "bring me down."

Well I'll agree with you that I definitely don't hear "prostitute" or anything like that.  ELO once uttered the words "bring me down", why can't Axl?  I'm still hearing it that way.  Either way, I think we're on the right track.  Let's put this "Prostitute" talk to rest.
