Lyrics
It's been grand knowing you, grand knowing you
Grand being your friend
You've been kind, loyal and so generous
Right down to the end
Please don't grieve watching me leave
That would be much too painful to stand
It's been fun, now I must run
But it's been grand, perfectly grand
Ilona, farewell cherie
Be brave, chin up, it's been sublime
You mustn't waste a precious moment over me
You don't have time
Just remember when you're lonely or blue
There's a hollow in my pillow for you
And Sipos, what can I say?
Ah, Sipos, no tears, be gay
You know, old friend, I'm in your debt
I owe you more than I can possibly repay
I won't forget
Give your wife a little kiss from Kodaly
I never met her, but I will by and by
Though I hate leaving you
Hate leaving your warm intimate club
It's a small pleasure
But I'll treasure each warm intimate snub
It's been grand, let me say
And let me say au revoir, not goodbye
For it's grand knowing you'll all be working
For your friend Kodaly
