Goodbye to you, my trusted friend We've known each other since we were nine or ten
Together we've climbed hills and trees Learned of love and ABC
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
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song, like the seasons, have all gone
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
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 a beach
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the stars we could reach were just starfish on a beach
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
