I can't show my face
Can't go anyplace
People stop an' stare
It's so hard to bare
Everybody knows you left me
It's the talk of the town . .

Every time we meet
My heart skips a beat
We don't stop to speak
'Though it's just a week
Everybody knows you left me
It's the talk of the town . .

We send out invitations
To friends and relations
Announcing our weddin' day
Friends and our relations
Gave congratulations
How can you face them?
What can you say?

Let's make up sweetheart
We can't stay apart
Don't let foolish pride
Keep you from my side
How can love like ours be ended?
It's the talk of the town . .
Instrumental repeat of verse

How can you face them?
What can you say?

Let's make up sweetheart
We can't stay apart
Don't let foolish pride
Keep you from my side
How can love like ours be ended?
It's the talk of the town . . . hmm

It's the talk of the town
