Happy New Year - Simone

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 you'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...
