LYRICS
Happy New Year
It's that time again -- another page, another chapter
Filled with hardships and joy and hate and love and laughter
If I could capture this moment, what would I see?
All of these achievements and mistakes arranged like a diary?
Happy New Year -- to all those gone from here
Happy New Year -- to all my friends here with me now
Happy New Year -- to all the children of this earth
This eve will deliver a rebirth
Happy New Year
I find myself clinging to trust, clinging to promise
With so many things that I have seen, so many I have missed
And now we find ourselves exposed as one
The journey on this virgin timeline has only just begun
And I can spot my faults from half a mile away
And I can see the canvas turning to grey
Looking forward, hoping to start anew
I leave this message for me and you
Happy New Year -- to those across the globe
Happy New Year -- to all the people in this room
Happy New Year -- I hope, for whatever it's worth
This eve will deliver a rebirth
Happy New Year
