Lyrics

[Verse 1] The midnight bells are ringing A ship is setting sail A newborn baby's cryin' As lovers say farewell [Chorus] And I'm singin', "Halleluja" "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" Come on [Chorus] I'm singin', "Carpe diem" I'm sayin', "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 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 [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] And I'm singin', "Halleluja" "Amen," the angels say Let's hope tomorrow finds us It's New Year's Day
