This is the best I could do on New Year’s Day! But I warn you, there may be another “shooting Judas way up high” or two in it. “New born babe is crying” doesn’t make sense, but that’s all I can get out of that line. Also, about the only things I understood even somewhat clearly in the bridge are the Sha-la-la-la’s and “… New Year’s Day”.
Open to any suggestions!!!
New Year’s Day
The midnight bells are ringing
The ship is setting sail
The new-born babe is 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, okay
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.
There’s nothing I would know
Than to watch the leaves fall
Sha la la la that New Year’s Day
Even if the past calls (?)
I’ve got my friends close
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.
