If you should see her
Don't mention my name
Don't tell that these tears I've cried
Have just poured like pain
Don't tell her how I looked
And don't repeat what I said
If she should ask about me
Just say I'm doing my best
Don't let her know she got the best of me
Next thing you know she'll want the rest of me
Well I beg you not to tell her of my agony
She'd love to say she got the best of me
The best of me, the best of me
Don't tell her I've been lonely
I'm sure she'd like to know
She'd probably have some kind of snide remark
Like, "I told you so"
You can forget that you saw me
It's better that way
She'll never know what a fool I was
For leaving her that way
Don't let her know she got the best of me
Next thing you know she'll want the rest of me
Well I beg you not to tell her of my agony
She'd love to say she got the best of me
The best of me, the best of me
Remember, if you should see her
Not to mention my name
She'll never know what a fool I was
For leaving her that way
Don't let her know she got the best of me
Next thing you know she'll want the rest of me
Well I beg you not to tell her of my agony
She'd love to say she got the best of me
The best of me, the best of me
Don't let her know she got the best of me
Next thing you know she'll want the rest of me
Well I beg you not to tell her of my agony
She'd love to say she got the best of me
The best of me, the best of me
