Happy New Year lyrics

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 grey,

so unlike yesterday.

Now’s the time for us to say…

Happy new year!

Happy new year!

May we all have a vision now and then

of a world where every neighbor is a friend.

Happy new year!

Happy new year!

May we all have our hopes, our will to try;

if we don’t, we might as well lay down and die,

you and I.

Sometimes I see

how the brave new world arrives,

and I see how it thrives

in the ashes of our lives.

Oh, yes, man is a fool,

and he thinks he’ll be okay

dragging on, feet of clay,

never knowing he’s astray,

keeps on going anyway…

Happy new year!

Happy new year!

May we all have a vision now and then

of a world where every neighbor is a friend.

Happy new year!

Happy new yea!

May we all have our hopes, our will to try;

if we don’t, we might as well lay down and die,

you and I.

Seems to me now

that the dreams we had before

are all dead, nothing more

than confetti on the floor.

It’s the end of a decade;

in another ten years time,

who can say what we’ll find,

what lies waiting down the line

in the end of eighty-nine…

Happy new year!

Happy new year!

May we all have a vision now and then

of a world where every neighbor is a friend.

Happy new year!

Happy new year!

May we all have our hopes, our will to try;

if we don’t, we might as well lay down and die,

you and I.
