If I Should Die

If I should die before you wake
Know my heart could never break
And as you lay me in the ground
Remember, what was lost is now found
As you weep at my cold stone
Remember that you are not alone
Take care and rest your weary head
Upon the words we left unsaid
Scatter me across the sea
Until my dust is finally free
Blow me one last and final kiss
Remember me, remember this
Remember once my fading grin
Then forget what should have been
Remember that we always had love
Forget the dreams we dreamt of
And if I should die before you wake
Forget the toll that life can take
Forget the pain that life can bring
Forget the songs we used to sing
Forget what's left of my memory
Forget that you were once with me
Sleep long and well beside the fire
Forget I once was your desire
Forget my face and live well at last
Forget our dreams buried in the past
Do this one last thing for me
Remember me, once, I set you free
