Happy New Year (A Great Year)

Hearts are content
After everyone has seen their present
Putting a smile on everyone’s face
Putting Old Saint Nick back into that cold place
Yes indeed, that was a great year

Not knowing what you were going to get
Easily put you in discontent
While still admitting, that this was a great year

Yes, though a new year is upon us
Everyone begins their journey to regain that holiday cheer
And go about their daily lives
Realizing that this too will be a “great and happy new year”
