Rod McKuen - Seasons In The Sun lyrics

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 ABC'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 everywhere. Wish for me and 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 are all gone 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 everywhere Think of me, I'll be there. We had joy. We had fun We had seasons in the sun But the the song and the rhyme Were just seasons out of time Adieu, Francoise, my faithful wife iWthout you I'd have had a lonely life. You cheated lots of times but then, I forgave you in the end for your lover was my friend. Adieu, Francoise, it's hard to die When all the birds are singing in the sky Now that the spring is in the air With your lovers everywhere Just be careful, I'll 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. Adieu, Emile. Adieu, Papa. Goodbye, Francoise. All our lives, we had fun We had seasons in the sun bu*the wine and the song Like the seasons are all gone All our lives, we had fun We had seasons in the sun But the stars we could reach Were just starfish on the beach.
