There's a sad sort of clanging |
|
And the bells in the steeple too, |
|
And up in the nurs'ry an absurd little bird |
|
Is popping out to say "coocoo". |
|
Regretfully they tell us, |
|
But firmly they compel us |
|
To say goodby to you. |
|
So long, farewell, Auf wiedersehn, good night, |
|
I hate to go and leave this pretty sight. |
|
So long, farewell, Auf wiedersehn, adieu, |
|
Adieu, adieu, to yieu and yieu and yieu. |
|
So long, farewell, Au'voir, auf wiedersehn, |
|
I'd like to stay and taste my first champagne |
|
So long, farewell, Auf wiedersehn, goodbye, |
|
I leave and heave a sigh and say goodbye, |
|
Good bye |
|
I'm glad to go, |
|
I cannot tell a lie. |
|
I flit, I float, |
|
I fleetly flee, I fly. |
|
The sun has gone to bed and so must I |
|
So long, farewell, auf wiedersehn, goodbye, |
|
Goodbye, |
|
Goodbye, |
|
Goodbye! |
