(C. Trenet, A. Beach)

[Recorded June 10, 1964, Los Angeles]



Goodbye, no use leading with our chins, this is where our story ends,

Never lovers ever friends.

Goodbye, let our hearts call it a day, but before you walk away,

I sincerely want to say.



I wish you bluebirds in the spring, to give your heart a song to sing,

And then a kiss, but more than this, I wish you love.

And if you like lemonade to cool you in some lazy glade,

I wish you health, and more than wealth, I wish you love.

My breaking heart and I agree that you and I could never be,

So with my best, my very best, I set you free.

I wish you shelter from the storm, a cozy fire to keep you warm,

Most of all, when snowflakes fall, I wish you love.



[musical interlude]



I wish you shelter from the storm, a cozy fire to keep you warm,

Most of all, when snowflakes fall, hot time, I wish you love.

All kinds of love, a whole gang of love.
