goodbye to you my trusted friend

now that spring is in the air

pretty girls are everywhere

now that the spring is in the air

little children everywhere

when you see them ill be there

but the wine and the song 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, yeah

now that the spring is in the air

with the flowers everywhere

but the stars we could reach

were just starfish on the beach

seasons in the sun

but the stars we could reach

were just starfish on th
