Goodbye to you, my trusted friend

we've known each oth'r since we were nine or ten;

together we've climbed hills and trees,

learned of love and A-B-C`s,

skinned our hearts and skinned our knees.

Goodbye my friend, it's hard to die,

when all the birds are singing in the sky;

now that the spring is in the air,

pretty girls are EV'ry where;

think of me and I'll be there.

We had joy, we had fun,

we had seasons in the sun;

but the hills that we climb

were just seasons out of time.

Goodbye, Papa, please pray for me,

I was the black sheep of the family;

you tried to teach me right from wrong,

too much wine and too much song,

wonder how I got along.

Goodbye, Papa, it's hard to die,

when all the birds are singing in the sky;

now that the spring is in the air,

little children ev'ry where,

when you'll see them, I'll be there.

We had joy we had fun

we had seasons in the sun

but the wine and the song like the seasons have our gone

We had joy we had fun

we had seasons in the sun

but the wine and the song like the seasons have our gone

Goodbye, Michelle, my little one,

you gave me love and helped me find the sun;

and ev'ry time that I was down,

you would always come around

and get my feet back on the ground.

Goodbye, Michelle, it's hard to die,

when all the birds are singing in the sky;

now that the spring is in the air,

with the flowers ev'ry where

I wish that we could both be there.

We had joy, we had fun,

we had seasons in the sun;

But the stars we could reach

were just starfish on the beach.

We had joy, we had fun,

we had seasons in the sun;

But the stars we could reach

were just starfish on the beach.

We had joy we had fun

we had seasons in the sun

but the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone

All our lifes we had fun

we had seasons in the sun

but the hills that we climbed

were just seasons out of time
