From Carve Her Name With Pride (1958) - Lewis Gilbert

The Life That I Have

The life that I have
is all that I have,
and the life that I have, is yours.

The love that I have,
of the life that I have,
is yours, and yours, and yours.

A sleep I shall have,
a rest I shall have,
yet death will be but a pause.

For the peace of my years,
in the long green grass,
will be yours, and yours, and yours.
