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
|
<Iterlude>
|
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
|
