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

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, 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

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, 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
