Seasons In The Sun - Lyrics by Terry Jacks


Lyrics
Goodbye to youmy trusted friend
We've known each other since we were nine or te
Together we've climbed hills and trees
Learned of love and A-B-C's
Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees.
Goodbyemy friendit'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.
We had joywe had fun
We had seasons in the sun;
But the hills that we climbed
Were just seasons out of time.
Goodbye
Papaplease 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 songwonder how I got along.
Goodbyepapait'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.
We had joywe had fun
We had seasons in the sun;
But the wine and the song
Like the seasons have all gone.
Goodbye
Michellemy 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
Michelleit'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'rywhere;I wish that we could both be there.
We had liveswe had fun
We had seasons in the sun;
But the stars we could reach
Were just star-fish on the beach.
