Happy New Year
(B. Andersson, B. Ulvaeus)
No more champagne
And the fireworks are through
Here we are
Me and you
Feeling lost
And feeling blue
It's the end
Of the party
And the morning seems so grey
So unlike
Yesterday
Now's the time for us to say
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't, we might as well lay down and die
You and I
Sometimes I see
How the brave new world arrives
And I see
How it thrives
In the ashes of our lives
Oh yes, man is a fool
And he thinks he'll be ok
Dragging on (ooh)
Feet of clay (ooh)
Never knowing he's astray
Keeps on going
Anyway
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't, we might as well lay down and die
You and I
Seems to me now
That the dreams we had before
Are all dead
Nothing more
Than confetti on the floor
It's the end (end)
Of a decade
In another ten years time
Who can say (ooh)
What we'll find (ooh)
What lies waiting
Down the line
In the end of
Eighty-nine?
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have a vision now and then
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
Happy new year
Happy new year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
If we don't, we might as well lay down and die
You and I
