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
ninety-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
