The midnight bells are ringing A ship is setting sail A newborn baby's crying As lovers say farewell 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 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 I'm singing hallelujah Amen, the angels say Let's pray tomorrow finds us It's new year's day
