The Shires – New Year lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's a minute to midnight
New Year's Eve
Dressed up for no one
At the party
I could call you up
But they're starting the countdown
It's way too late
Pour in the champagne
You'd never make it in time
Five, four, three, two one
Everybody's got someone

[Chorus]
Happy New Year, baby
Wherever you are
Are you thinking of me?
And I don't wanna feel like this
I don't wanna miss you
Wish you were holding me
Right here
Kissing in the New Year

[Verse 2]
It's a minute to midnight
Another year gone
That I couldn't tell you
You're the only one
That I'll ever want
Five, four, three, two one
I wonder if you've got someone

[Chorus]
Happy New Year, baby
Wherever you are
Are you thinking of me?
And I don't wanna feel like this
I don't wanna miss you
Wish you were holding me
Right here
Kissing in the New Year

[Bridge]
What if I leave this bar?
What if I follow my heart?
Straight to where you are

[Pre-Chorus]
Say Happy New Year, baby
Here I am, were you thinking of me?

[Chorus]
Happy New Year, baby
Wherever you are
Are you thinking of me?
And I don't wanna feel like this
I don't wanna miss you
Wish you were holding me
Right here
Kissing in the New Year

[Outro]
Maybe next year
We'll be right here
Kissing in the New Year
