|
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 neighbour 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 neighbour 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 |
|
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 neighbour 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 |
