Please don't ask about Barbara Don't ask me if she's found somebody new 'Cause I would try to smile but in a little while My tears would show and then you'd know it's true Please don't ask about Barbara The hurt will bring the teardrops to my eyes Though I would pretend that now she's just a friend You'd look at me and see right through the lies Tears, tears, go away, come again another day How can I hide this pain I feel inside When little teardrops give my heart away? Don't you ever tell Barbara I'd rather die than let her know I'm cryin' Let her run around until the day she's found She needs me back again but this I ask till then "Please don't ask about Barbara"
