It Is The Time Of Year

I have been wished a happy new year a few times today
And the same to you in return i did say
Doubtless nice words are always quite nice for to hear
For warm goodwill greetings it is the time of year
In villages, towns and cities this evening close to and after midnight
Excitement and joy will have reached a new height
And even strangers will hug and shake hands when they meet
In every crowded town mall and on every street
Moments of sheer joy in our lifetimes are few
When the strains of Auld lang Syne does ring in the new
The old year it is dying at midnight it will be dead
And hope springs eternal for better days ahead
The words happy new year always happy to hear
For hope springs eternal in a brand new year.
