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
