Please Speak Well Of Me

I've been away a year and a day

You recognize love after the fact

You did what you did and that was that

[Chorus]

Don't say words that you don't mean

When I'm gone, please speak well of me

Looking back now

I only wish I had been kinder

Did I ever know love, did I ever know love?

And could I have been blinder?

[Chorus]

Don't hold back all your love for someday,

For someday

I would say that I'm sorry if it would do any good

But to never regret means you have to forget

And I don't think that I could

Don't say words that you don't mean

When I'm gone, when I'm gone, when I'm gone

Please speak well of me
