New Year's Day
The midnight bells are ringing
A ship is setting sail
A newborn baby is cryin
As lovers say farewell
And I'm singing: Hallelujah!
"Amen" the angels say
Let's hope tomorrow finds us
It's New Year's Day
Let's toast to new beginnings, okay
Raise up a glass and say
For all of our tomorrows
And what was yesterday
I'm singing: Carpe Diem!
I'm saying: Seize the day!
Come on let's live forever
It's New Year's Day
Where does the time go?
Just watch the wind blow
Sha la, la, la
It's New Year's Day
Green does the grass grow
Outside my window
Sha la la la
It's New Year's Day
This message in a bottle
The wisdom of the wine
It's just a rainy Monday
This isn't "Auld Lang Syne"
And I'm singing: Hallelujah!
"Amen" the angels say
Let's pray tomorrow finds us
It's New Year's Day
