[Verse 1]
The midnight bells are ringing
A ship is setting sail
A newborn baby's crying
As lovers say farewell
[Chorus 1]
And I'm singing hallelujah
Amen, the angels say
Let's hope tomorrow finds us
It's new year's day
[Verse 2]
Let's toast to new beginnings, okay
Raise up a glass and say
"For all of our tomorrows
And what was yesterday"
[Chorus 2]
I'm singing carpe diem
I'm saying seize the day
Come on, let's live forever
It's new year's day
[Bridge]
Where does the time go
Just watch the wind blow
It's new year's day
Green does the grass grow outside my window
It's new year's day
[Verse 3]
This message in a bottle
The wisdom of the wine
It's just a rainy Monday
This isn't Auld Lang Syne
[Chorus 1]
I'm singing hallelujah
Amen, the angels say
Let's hope tomorrow finds us
It's new year's day
