I hear happy couples, up and down the street Shouting greetings at everyone they meet But for me it's just another lonely New Year's Eve Somewhere people dancing are having a good time But I sit here and cry as twelve o'clock chimes Cause for me it's just another lonely New Year's Eve (Should auld acquaintance be forgot) I hope not 'Cause I got nowhere to go and no one of my own It's just another night alone, whoa When the clock strikes midnight they'll all kiss and cheer And I'll whisper with love, but love won't be here But for me, it's just another lonely New Year's Eve Lonely, lonely New Year's Eve Lonely, lonely
