"Farväl till sommaren" is a song written by Lars Berghagen.

Writing the song in late summer in Fjällbacka, the lyrics are a goodbye-song for the summer, upon the arrival of autumn in Sweden. The song was part of Lasse Berghagen's dinner shows at Berns Salonger. Recording it, using it as a B-side for the 1976 single "Då gör vi så", the song became successful for Sven-Ingvars.[1] och scoring a Svensktoppen hit lasting for 11 weeks in late 1976-early 1977, even topping the chart.[2]

Lasse Berghagen himself also recorded the song on his 1976 album Jag ville bli någon 1976[3] as well as Roland Cedermark on his 1993 album Roland Cedermark spelar vackra visor

The song has also been recorded by Sten & Stanley on 1985 album Musik, dans & party.[4]
