Reprise: So Long, Farewell (The Concert)
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 cuckoo (cuckoo, cuckoo)
Regretfully they tell us, what firmly they compel us, to say goodbye
To you
So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodnight!
We'd hate to go and leave this pretty sight.
So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, adieu!
Adieu, adieu, to you and you and you!
So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye
We flit, we float, we flitly flee, we fly
