Happy New Year

Ill wear the jewels you gave me round my neck tonight
Though I know you wont be there
Ill wear them in a gold chain that catches in the light
Though I know of course you wont appear

Ill leave the party early after a drink or two
And Ill check my phone for calls
Though I know there will be none from you

Ill walk home with snow falling
Deep on frozen lawns
And Ill leave all those others celebrating
All the things that they have done

Ill come over to your office and watch them come and go
Though I know I wont see you there
And Ill take a train down to the coast and sit and watch the sea
Ill be sitting there alone

As usual, above all things I miss you every day
Without pause
Happy new year my darling
Happy new year

Ill walk home with snow falling
Deep on frozen lawns
And Ill leave all those others celebrating
All the things that they have done

Happy new year my darling
Happy new year
And Ill leave, leave
