So Long, Farewell

歌詞

CHILDREN There’s a sad sort of clanging from the clock in the hall And the bells in the steeple too. And up in the nursery an absurd little bird Is popping out to say cook-coo Regretfully they tell us, but firmly they compel us To say goodbye to you... So long farewell, auf weidersehen good night MARTA I hate to go and leave this pretty sight CHILDREN So long farewell, auf weidersehen adieu FRIEDRICH Adieu, adieu, to you and you and you CHILDREN So long farewell, au revior auf weidersehen LIESL I’d like to stay and taste my first champagne CHILDREN So long farewell, auf weidersehen goodbye KURT I leave and heave a sigh and say good bye - Goodbye! BRIGITTA I’m glad... to go.... I cannot tell a lie LOUISA I flit, I float, I fleetly flee I fly... GRETL The sun... has gone... to bed and so must I... CHILDREN So long...farewell...auf weidersehen goodbye... Goodbye... Goodbye.... Goodbye.... GUESTS Goodbye
