Seasons In The Sun

performed by Terry Jacks written by Jacques Brel (words later modified)

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's 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 To much wine and to 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 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 We had joy we had fun We had seasons in the sun But the stars we could reach Were just starfish on the 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 We had joy we had fun We had seasons in the sun...

Islands in the stream That is what we are No one in between How can we be wrong Sail away with me To another world And we rely on each other , ah ha From one lover to another , ah ha

I can't live without you if the love was gone Everything is nothing when you got no one And you walk in the night Slowly losing sight of the real thing But that won't happen to us and we got no doubt Too deep in love and we got no way out And the message is clear This could be the year for the real thing No more will you cry Baby I will hurt you never We start and end as one In love forever We can ride it together , ah ha Making love with each other , ah ha

Islands in the stream That is what we are No one in between How can we be wrong Sail away with me To another world And we rely on each other , ah ha From one lover to another , ah ha
