[Verse 1]
She sets her alarm, five minutes to midnight
And wakes just in time to greet the new year
Remembers the kisses, remembers the laughter
And all that's gone away
[Verse 2]
She shuffles around, turning the lights on
Goes to the kitchen, gets the champagne
Opens the window and wrapped in a blanket
Begins to count and wait
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five
Four, three, two, one
[Chorus]
Happy new year, happy new year
[Verse 3]
They say you can hear it over the island
Starting in Times Square and spreading throughout
A roar like the ocean, it comes from a distance
Grows louder then turns quiet
[Verse 4]
She sits in a dream or in a memory
While old conversations play in her ears
Sometimes the minutes feel longer than hours
Some days feel long as years
She sets her alarm, five minutes to midnight
And wakes just in time to greet the new year
Remembers the kisses, remembers the laughter
And all that's gone away
[Verse 2]
She shuffles around, turning the lights on
Goes to the kitchen, gets the champagne
Opens the window and wrapped in a blanket
Begins to count and wait
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five
Four, three, two, one
[Chorus]
Happy new year, happy new year
[Verse 3]
They say you can hear it over the island
Starting in Times Square and spreading throughout
A roar like the ocean, it comes from a distance
Grows louder then turns quiet
[Verse 4]
She sits in a dream or in a memory
While old conversations play in her ears
Sometimes the minutes feel longer than hours
Some days feel long as years
