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 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
