  • The midnight bells are ringing
    A ship is setting sail
    A newborn baby's crying
    As lovers say farewell

    I'm singing hallelujah
    Amen, the angels say
    Let's hope tomorrow finds us
    It's New Year's Day

    Let's toast to new beginnings okay
    Raise up a glass and say
    For all of our tomorrows
    And what was yesterday come on

    I'm singing carpe diem
    I'm saying seize the day
    Come on, let's live forever
    It's New Year's Day

    Where does the time go
    Just watch the wind blow
    Sha la la la
    It's New Year's Day
    Green does the grass grow
    Outside my window
    Sha la la la
    It's New Year's Day

    This message in a bottle
    The wisdom of the wine
    It's just a rainy Monday
    This isn't Auld Lang Syne

    I'm singing hallelujah
    Amen, the angels say
    Let's hope tomorrow finds us
