You look so peaceful sleeping,
You don't know that I'm leaving, but I'm gone.
Well I did my best to beat 'em,
But in my head, the demons said "Move on".
When you wake up, you're gonna curse my name,
But as some time goes by I hope and pray:

When you think of me,
Remember the way that I used to be,
Remember the times I held you tenderly,
Remember the way that I love you.

I think about the night I met you,
I swore I'd never forget you,
Well, I won't.
I think about the way you'll live and breath,
inside my dreams forever,
You'll be better when I'm gone,
you'll be better when I'm gone.
'Cause I know you're gonna fall in love again.
I'm sorry this is how it has to end.

But when you think of me,
Remember the way that I used to be,
Remember the times I held you tenderly,
Remember the way that I love you.
Oh, when you think of me

As I pick up these bags and turn around,
I say a little prayer and hope somehow:

When you think of me,
Remember the way that it used to be,
Remember the times I held you tenderly,
Remember the way that I love you.
