The midnight bells are ringing
A ship is setting sail
A newborn baby is crying
As lovers say farewell
And 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
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
And I'm singing hallelujah
"Amen", the angels say
Let's hope tomorrow finds us
It's New Year's Day
