When all My Dreams have Fallen Asleep

When all my dreams have fallen asleep,

And all I have are memories to keep;
I'll look back at every used to be,
And relive each special memory.

Reminiscing on the things I've done,
On the battles lost and the battles won;
Now looking back I cannot complain,
For all my endeavours, they weren't in vain.

And remembering all my foes and friends,
Successes, failures, and meeting ends,
Each kindness received I shan't forget,
Nor stumbling moment shall I regret.

And I shan't be bitter, but I shall forgive,
I'll harbour no grudge for as long as I live:
For what value is life if without love?
And when shall I learn that if I don't right now?

When I've lived to the full, this life on earth,
And spent my time on what it was worth;
I'll look above with a grateful heart,
And thank my Creator and then depart.
