Seasons in the Sun

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 singingIn 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 teach 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.

We had joy we had fun we had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the songs 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 thatI 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 climbed 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 ...

Please Come Home for Christmas

Bells will be ringing
The glad, glad news
Oh, what a Christmas
To have the blues
My baby's gone,I have no friend
To wish me greetings once again

Choirs will be singing"Silent Night"
Christmas carols by candlelight
Please come home for Christmas
Please come home for Christmas
If not for Christmas
By New Year's Night

Friends and relations
Send salutations
Sure as the stars shine up above
For this is Christmas, Christmas my dear
The time of year to be with the one you love

Then won't you please tell me
You'll never more roam
Christmas and New Year's will find you home
There'll be no more sorrow
No grief, no pain
Because I'll be happy
Christmas once again
