Au Revoir, My Friend

[Verse] Run, boy, from the pain Take your favourite toy Into the night Taken from me A thousand miles away Into the night I'll never forgive myself Should have been there to save your health What kind of father am I? [Chorus] (Hugo, Hugo) Au revoir, my friend May your childhood never end I wish that you could drive me round the bend again Au revoir, my friend [Verse] Hugo, it's killing me I should have been there that night Leading you into the light Run you down to surgery Our boy was under the knife Something wasn't right I guess you know when you've had enough My poor little boy was feeling rough I'll never forget those days Walking with you on a beach with your siblings Safely under your gaze [Chorus] Hugo, Hugo Au revoir, my friend I should have been there at the end Hugo, Hugo Au revoir, my friend May your childhood never end Au revoir, my friend
