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.
