Rewrite of Elvis' classic-Love Me Tender

If anyone would like to help me create a youtube video for this, let me know. Thanks

Loved me bitter

Loved me not so sweet

Now I must

For my sanity

Let you go

You have left my life

So incomplete

And for that reason

I can no more love you so

Loved me bitter

Loved me untrue

All my dreams

You simply cannot fulfill

Oh my darling

How I wish I could love you

But I can't

And now I know

I never will

Loved me bitter

Betrayed me too damn long

Now you have truly broken my heart

And now never again to me

Do I want you to belong

And so now let us part

You have left my life 

So very incomplete

And for that reason

I can no more love you so

Loved me bitter

Loved me not at all clear

Tell me why you had to

So shatter mine

I would have forever been yours

Through all the years

Now sadly it must be

Our end of loving time

Loved me bitter

Loved me untrue

All my dream

You simply cannot fulfill

Oh my darling

How I wish I could love you

But I can't

And now I know

I never will
