seasons in the sun

we had joy

we had fun

we had seasons in the sun;

but the hills we would climb

were just seasons out of time. all our lives we had fun

we had seasons in the sun;

but the stars we could reach

were just starfish on the beach. adieu

emile

my trusted friend

we've known each other

since we were nine or ten;

together we climbed hills and trees

learned of love

and a-b-c's

skinned our hearts

and skinned our knees. adieu

emile

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'rywhere;

think of me

and i'll be there. adieu

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. adieu

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'rywhere;

when you'll see them

i'll be there. adieu

francoise

my trusted wife

without you i'd have had a lonely life;

you cheated lots of times

but then

i forgave you in the end

tho' your lover was my friend. adieu

francoise

i'ts hard to die

when all the birds are singing in the sky;

now that the spring is in the air

with your lovers ev'rywhere;

just be careful

i'll 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
