Lyric discussion by Marquez 

This doesn't sound very sweet... It's kinda mean of him to tell her he won't forget to put roses on her grave. How can he be sure she's going to die first? I think he's practically wishing her to die.

I don't think its meant to be sweet at all. Who would send their lover dead flowers? I agree with you, I think he is essentially saying that he is going to live a long, fulfilled life and return to place roses on her grave, which is a symbolic victory

@Marquez My aunt at ages 79 went to her first love to put some roses in his grave. He didn´t have a right closure. They got married have a family but she never forgot him. Til this year when she tried to look for him to have that closure, she realize he was dead since 20 years ago. She keep thinking on him almost her whole life. She was crying just there, I was next to her. So it doesn´t seem that it could have just one meaning. It depends on.
