Goodbye to you, my trusted friend.
We've known each other since we're nine or ten,
Together we've climbed hills or trees.

Learned of love and ABCs,
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 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,

When you 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. x 2


Goodbye Michelle, my little one.
You gave me love and helped me find the sun,

Every 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 everywhere,
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. x 2


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 lives, we had fun,

We had seasons in the sun,
But the hills that we climbed
Were just seasons out of time.
