Happy New Year

The last twelve months have been long There has been good times and bad times but we remain strong Do you remember the things that happened from beginning to end Now there’s a fresh new start right around the bend So gather your family and friends around Party it up and turn up the music sound So fill yourself with good will and cheer And when the clock strikes midnight shout Happy New Year Father times dying baby New Year is ready to be born Write a new book of your life the old one is tattered and torn Don’t forget the past but let the pain slip away Let the sun shine upon you on the first New Years Day Be a better person live in the now Enjoy your life more make a solemn vow So fill yourself with good will and cheer And when the clock strikes midnight shout Happy New Year Remember loved ones who have fallen in the past Raise a toast to them and yourself to make their memory last Grab your sweet heart and kiss them when the bell tolls Pray for peace and all the departed souls Make a New Years resolution don’t break your word Be true to yourself and others and let your voice be heard So fill yourself with good will and cheer And when the clock strikes midnight shout Happy New Year Make this one better than the year before The sands of time are wasting away each day a little more Make each second count always strive Go face your fears and thank heaven your alive Indulge in your passions make your dreams come true Good luck God bless Happy New Year to you
