Seasons in the sun -- Terry Jacks

goodbye my friend, it's hard to die when all the birds are singing in the sky and all the flowers are everywhere 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 plead for me  i was the black sheep of the family
"And I don't know all these words  I have bought three turds 
With my BB-gun I would kill birds 

(**)

goodbye, michelle, my little one "I was the apple of the shining sun.
And I have loved you every week All my tears are salty
I think now I will start to leave"

(**)

we had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the stars that we reached where just starfish on the beach.


"Seasons in the Sun" is the story of a dying man, bidding farewell to loved ones who have shared his life.        (songfacts)
