[Verse 1]
Your memory is something that
I never could seem to lose
Lord, I tried everything even
Drowning your memory in booze
So I finally decided to lay down
And die with the pain
Oh, but my heart kept on beating
And softly repeating your name

[Chorus]
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
My heart and my mind know
You're still here with us
When they lay me away
The last words they'll speak
Here lies a man
That don't rest in peace

[Verse 2]
God gave me your love and
God knows I threw it away
Oh, what I’ve put you through
Is the same hell I'm living today
But praying don't help
So dying's the best I can do
But when it's all said and done
I'll still have these memories of you
[Chorus]
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
My heart and my mind know
You're still here with us
When they lay me away
The last words they'll speak
Here lies a man
That don't rest in peace
Here lies a man
That don't rest in peace
