                          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
