No more champagne, and the fireworks are through,

here we are, me and you feeling lost and feeling blue.

It's the end of the party, and the morning seems so gray..

so unlike yesterday, now's the time for us to say..

Happy New Year, Happy New Year,

of a world where every neighbour is a friend.

Happy New Year, Happy New Year,

you and I.

what lies waiting down the line,
