Please Don't Talk About Me When I'm Gone

                                  Years we've been together

Seems we can't get along,

No matter what I do

I don't appeal to you

Makes no difference whether

I am right or wrong

If we can't be sweethearts

This much you can do



Please don't talk about me when I'm gone

Oh, Honey, though our friendship ceases from now on

And listen, if you can't say anything real nice

It's better not to talk at all, that's my advice

We're parting, you go your way, I'll go mine

It's best that we do

Here's a kiss, I hope that this brings lots of luck to you

Makes no difference how I carry on

Just remember

Please don't talk about me when I'm gone.
