- Are there better men than I, who’ve sought your love:
- So rich and powerful, or smooth of tongue,
- Or handsome, fun or otherwise above,
- Or more successful on life’s ladder’s rung?
- Have they taken you to dine at the right place,
- And given you a thrill, a moment’s smile,
- And made you like and want them face to face;
- Well, where are they now and where for such long while?
- But I am here and will, since you’re around,
- Be ever blessed to know you, thus to hold
- The memory of your beauty, when I found
- It in your every word and deed so bold.
- There are better men than I but where are they?
- None better loves you now and never may.
