Better Not Tell Her

(Carly Simon)
 Better not tell her, that I was your lover
 Better not make her jealous of me
 Better convince her there was nothing between us
 I'm not those initials in your diary
 But if you slip and my name comes up
 Don't deny that you knew me
 Just leave out the white nights
 The moon in your window
 The break in your whisper
 The promises after
 Better not tell her why you love Spanish dancing
 Don't bother to say that it's hot in the summer in Madrid
 Let it all go now, Like smoke from a candle
 Like the trace of a song that you hear in the wind
 But if you slip and my name comes up
 Don't deny that you knew me
 Just leave out the white nights
 The moon in your window
 The break in your whisper
 The promises after
 Leave out the tears and the laughter
 She won't need to know
 That I cried when you left
 That I think of you still
 But if you slip and my name comes up
 Don't deny that you knew me
 Just leave out the white nights
 The moon in your window
 The break in your whisper
 The promises after
 Leave out the tears and the laughter
 She won't need to know
 That I'd die for your love
 That I still... love... you
