Eleanor

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 A-B-C's, 

skinned our hearts and skinned our knees. 



Goodbye my friend, it's hard to die, 

when all the birds are singing in the sky; 

now that spring is in the air, 

pretty girls are every where; 

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 climb 

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, 

but 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 spring is in the air, 

little children every where, 

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 song, 

like the seasons are 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, Rochelle, my little one, 

you gave me love and helped me find the sun; 

and every time that I was down, 

you would always come around 

and get my feet back on the ground. 



Goodbye, Rochelle, it's hard to die, 

when all the birds are singing in the sky; 

now that spring is in the air, 

with the flowers every where 

I wish that we could both be there. 



one, two, three, 



we had joy, we had fun, 

we had seasons in the sun; 

but the stars we could reach 

were just starfish on a beach 



we had joy, we had fun, 

we had seasons in the sun; 

but the stars we could reach 

were just starfish on a beach 



we had joy, we had fun 

we had seasons in the sun; 

but the wine and the song, 

like the seasons have all gone. 



All our lives we had fun, 

we had seasons in the sun; 

but the hills that we climb 

were just seasons out of time.
