We had joy, We had fun, We had seasons in the sun; But the hills we would climb Were just seasons out of time. All our lives we had fun, We had seasons in the sun; But the stars we could reach Were just starfish on the beach. Adieu, emile, My trusted friend, We've known each other Since we were nine or ten; Together we climbed hills and trees, Learned of love And a-b-c's, Skinned our hearts And skinned our knees. Adieu, emile, 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 ev'rywhere; Think of me And i'll be there. [chorus] Adieu, 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. Adieu, 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 ev'rywhere; When you'll see them, i'll be there. [chorus} Adieu, francoise, My trusted wife, Without you i'd have had a lonely life; You cheated lots of times, But then, I forgave you in the end, Tho' your lover was my friend. Adieu, francoise, I'ts hard to die, When all the birds are singing in the sky; Now that the spring is in the air, With your lovers ev'rywhere; Just be careful, I'll be there. All our lives we had fun, We had seasons in the sun; But the stars we could reach Were just starfish on the beach
