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.
