听歌记词 Seasons in the Sun



Goodbye to you my trusted friend
We've know 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 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 reach 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 ,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(repeat*)

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 hills that we climb
were just seasons out of time.
*We had joy we had fun we had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone(repeat*)
