Comment te dire adieu is the ninth studio album by French singer-songwriter Françoise Hardy, released in 1968 on Disques Vogue. Like many of her previous records, it was originally released without a title and came to be referred to, later on, by the name of its most popular song. The cover artwork was a drawing by Jean-Paul Goude.
