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 when I'm gone
Please don't talk about me when I'm gone
Though our friendship ceases, from now on
And, take this, if you can't say anything real nice
It's much better not to talk at all, is my advice
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
I'll remember, please don't talk about me
Not a word about me
Please don't talk about me when I'm gone.
