Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFGHG AIJIKLM NNLL

If I should die tonightA
And you should comeB
And stand beside meC
Lying cold and dumbB
And if while standing thereD
You whispered lowE
'Here's the ten poundsF
You lent me years ago 'G
I would arise although they'd laid me flatH
And say 'What's that 'G
-
If I should die tonightA
But rose to countI
With trembling fingersJ
That long lost amountI
I might live onK
But whenL
You said' Here's your umbrellaM
And your fountain pen '-
For one short spaceN
I'd gaze into thy faceN
And thenL
Drop dead againL
