Erstwhile Paramour

My erstwhile paramour did you think that he would love you
more
is he the one you've waited for not me?,
and when you're all alone at night hand in hand by candlelight
is he the one that makes it right not me?,
but will he love you, will he hold you
or care for you or make your dreams unfold
or make you laugh just half as much as me,
and can he make your world complete
when night time falls between your sheets,
and can he perform incredible feats like me.
My erstwhile paramour did you not like your life before
what once was fun became a chore i see,
but looking back i hope you'll say that it was worthwhile anyway
and don't regret a single day with me,
when i used to love you, used to hold you
cared for you made your dreams unfold,
and made you laugh when you wanted to cry that's me,
i no longer make your life complete
but i'll take the blows admit defeat
if this is what it takes to set you free.
