Seasons in the Sun

Goodbye to you, my trusted friend

We've known each other since we're 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 everywhere

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 climbed

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, my friend, it's hard to die

When all the birds are singing in the sky;

Now that the spring is in the air

Little children everywhere

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 all gone.

We had joy, we had fun

We had seasons in the sun;

But the hills that we climbed

Were just seasons out of time.

Goodbye, Michelle, my little one

You gave me love and helped me find the sun;

And every time that I was down

You would always come around

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 everywhere;

I wish that we could both be there.

All our lives 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 hills that we climbed

Were just seasons out of time.
