The worlds a little older
As distant sounds loom
The nights a little colder
And I'm alone, happy New Year

The cheer of New Years Day yeah
Lies on the still night air
I shout but you can't hear me
And you don't care, happy New Year
Baby you don't care, happy New Year

The year is lined with promise
So greet it cheerfully
A time so full of promise
Holds none for me, happy New Year

No bridges left to cross now
No dragon's left to slay
I've never been this lost now
You've gone away, happy New Year
You've gone away, happy New Year.
