It's Only Love by Sheryl Crow
Malibu by Hole/Courtney Love

There are more I'm forgetting. And I'm sure plenty we don't even know about.
Def I Would Die 4 U. I think his song Darling Nikki is about her too. Also, I have ALWAYS thought Purple Rain is about her too. He apparently gave her the track for her to write the words, but she couldn't and then he comes up with lyrics like this:

I never wanted to be your weekend lover.
I only wanted to be some kind of friend.
Baby I could never steal you from another.
It's such a shame our friendship had to end.

Honey I know, I know, I know times are changing.
It's time we all reach out for something new,
That means you too.
You say you want a leader,
But you can't seem to make up your mind.
