Eventually – albeit reluctantly – he lets Harry go to die, and although he doesn't kill himself, he doesn't try to escape his own early death. So he gets back Lily, but in a form which isn't the same and which he doesn't like, just as the Middle Brother found that his returned version of his wife wasn't the same. But when he fears for Lily, he goes to Death (Dumbledore) and ends up with the charge of looking after Harry, Lily's son.
He's the only one who doesn't get the associated Deathly Hallow in reality. He wants more than anything to bring Lily back. Severus Snape, on the other hand, has his life defined by wanting to bring a particular woman back to life. As far as we can see from the Epilogue and the Cursed Child, he's living a reasonably long and happy life, just as the Youngest Brother did. So Harry walks to his death in the story of the Deathly Hallows, but ends up meeting Dumbledore – Death – whom he 'greets as an old friend', and who tells him he can go on living. Harry has the Invisibility Cloak but also doesn't try to cheat Death. Harry's Invisibility Cloak is the cloak the youngest brother used to hide from Death until he chose his own time of dying. Remember that it turns out that the story is based on reality, and the Deathly Hallows actually exist. The third brother uses the cloak to lead a long and happy life, at the end of which he takes off the cloak and gives it to his son, and greets Death 'as an old friend'. The middle brother uses the stone to bring back his dead fiancee, but she is only a shade of her former self, and he becomes so miserable that he commits suicide, and Death claims the second brother. The oldest brother uses the wand to fight his enemy, and wins – but when he is sleeping, someone comes in and kills him and takes the wand for himself, and thus Death claims the first brother. He is given Death's own Invisibility Cloak.
The oldest brother asks for an unbeatable wand, the middle brother for a stone which will bring people back from the dead, and the youngest (and wisest) for something which will allow him to leave without Death following him.
Death pretends to congratulate them, and offers them each a reward for their success. Three brothers go to a river, and build a bridge to cross it, thus foiling Death who usually collects victims who drown in it.
