Remember me for the things I've done
And not for the senseless things I've uttered
Remember me for the accolades I've won
And not for the times I've irrevocably faltered

Remember me for all the things I've strived for
And not for the vanities of my mind
Remember me for the ways I've tried to be more
And not for the times I've fell behind

Remember me for all I've ever wanted to offer
And not for the things I could not
Remember me for the honesty I've wanted to deliver
And not for the secrets I kept into the night

Remember me for everything I've wanted to be
And not for the person I've instead become
Remember me for the lessons I've wanted to heed
And not for when I've come undone

Remember me for the lasting love I've promised
And not its limitations I couldn't conquer
Remember me for the passion I've professed
And not for the pride that led to my blunder

Remember me for the ways I've kept you from harm
And not for the pain I've caused
Remember me for the life with you in my arms
And not for the tears I've roused

Remember me this way, my love
Grant me one last wish
Remember me this way, my love
You are my only bliss
