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, is 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
Remember, please don't talk about me
Not one word about me
Please don't talk about me when I'm gone
