Better Than Me

It won’t be hard for you to find a guy who’s smarter than me,
Who’s been to university and has a fancy degree,
He may know more than me about the way the world goes round,
But when it comes to knowing you I think I win every round.
Let’s face it, you’re gonna meet someone who has more money,
Enough to take you round the world to places always sunny,
He might have cash to splash and spend far more than I have altogether,
But money isn’t going to look after you forever.
I know you’re bound to meet someone who is far more attractive,
But then again that’s easy; I look like a praying mantis!
Well ok, maybe more like something you’d see in the zoo,
Which begs the question how the hell did I end up with you?
I’m sure you’ll find a guy who can be more artistic,
But with that comes the risk that he’s materialistic,
And he’ll care more about his artwork than anything else,
Half the time you’d have to find something to do yourself.
Although it pains me to say this you’ll find a better poet,
One whose words are more astute and rhyme better, I know it!
He may compose poems to you with far more intellect,
But they would never be written with as much love as my text.
 
 
To summarize the very point that I am trying to portray,
You will find guys who are better than me in many different ways,
They may be stronger, braver, have better behaviour,
Have goals set in life instead of living like a failure,
They could be funnier so you can always have a laugh,
They might even be kind enough to run you a hot bath,
I hope that you get roses from them, all the bloody time,
Small romantic gestures often, if not it’s a crime!
I’m sure they will, just look at you, you have to be the most,
Beautiful girl in all this world, no other girl comes close.
But each and every single guy, in fact all guys in one,
Could never love you like I love you, I’d win by a tonne,
Not one of them could care as much about you as much as I do,
You think you know how much I love you? You don’t have a clue.
 
It’s like there’s not a single love song in the whole of existence,
That doesn’t relate to you in every single instance,
Every poem of love, be it new love or heartbreak,
Reminds me of you to the point that I can’t take.
I think about you every second of every minute,
Every hour, every day, every week you’re in it,
In my head, when I’m in bed, while I’m awake, while I’m asleep,
When I’m working, when I’m alone and I sit and I weep,
Because I hate my life without you,
I miss everything about you,
And I know I’ll always adore you,
And I’ll forever wait for you,
In the hope that one day we,
Can try again to be happy,
I know it’s not likely to happen,
But my hopes will never slacken,
And though my world persists to blacken,
And my life proceeds to sadden,
All because we’re not together,
I swear I will not let it ever,
Come between what we still hold,
A friendship that’s worth more than gold,
A bond that is so rare and pure,
A deep connection that’s for sure,
If that’s all it could ever be,
Although it’s hard that’s fine with me,
In your life I want to remain a big part,
Because I still love you with my whole heart.
 
Nobody will ever love you as much as I sure do,
They wouldn’t jump as fast as me to say they’d die for you,
Unfortunately you don’t think that I’m the guy for you,
It doesn’t matter, I could never say goodbye to you.
And it’s not my love that’s important; it’s what you feel for them,
If they manage to make you happy they get ten out of ten,
And though I’ll always envy anyone who’s lucky enough,
To have you as their girl I promise I’ll always remain tough,
And not let my feelings make anything awkward between us,
I don’t want us to have to argue or ever make a fuss,
The thing I want the most is for you to live a happy life,
And one day make someone ecstatic by becoming their wife,
I wish that I could be the person to make your life complete,
I love every last thing about you from your head to your feet,
But if it can’t be me it must be someone who treats you right,
Someone to love you and adore you every day, every night,
Someone who will never hurt you, someone who will never leave you,
Someone who you can trust in, someone who will always believe you,
It forever kills me knowing you’re with somebody else,
Because the qualities that you need, I possess them myself,
Apart from one thing and this thing is something rather important,
When it comes to making you happy my ability’s dormant,
I wish it wasn’t this way but there’s nothing I can do,
Apart from being your best friend and never stop loving you.
