As the old year fades away

And the new one dawns today

We look back on all that's passed

And look ahead to what will last

The highs and lows, the joy and pain

We'll leave them all behind again

For a fresh start, a brand new chance

To dance and sing and love and prance

So let's embrace the coming year

With hope and love and cheer and cheer

For all the wonders it will bring

And all the joy it will bring

May this new year be bright and true

Filled with love and laughter too

May all your dreams come true, my dear

And may your blessings never steer

From this new path you're meant to walk

May you prosper, may you flock

To all the joys that life will bring

And may your heart forever sing

As the clock strikes twelve on this new year's night

We look to the future with wonder and might

For all the things that we have yet to see

And all the adventures that are meant to be

We stand at the threshold of endless possibility

Filled with potential and opportunity

For growth and love and all that we hold dear

We welcome the new year with open hearts and cheer

May this new year be kind and true

Filled with love and laughter too

May all your dreams come true, my dear

And may your blessings never steer

From this new path you're meant to walk

May you prosper, may you flock

To all the joys that life will bring

And may your heart forever sing
