The ball drops
The chimes sound
Fireworks exploding
A New Year comes around

Standing together
Dark hair framed in flame
I love you more deeply
I need to exclaim

As I look into your eyes
Dark whirlpools churning
Filling my soul
Only for you, I'm yearning

The old year is gone
With all of its trials
In with the new
We will fill it with smiles

Twelve months more
For us to be as one
Making me the happiest
Under the sun

I look forward
With a smile on my face
Knowing for sure
At your side is my place

It will not be easy
But we want it enough
As we work through
It will make us tough

Holding your hand
Giving me strength that I need
Your love filling me
Helping me succeed

I’ll return it in kind
Supporting you too
So any struggles
You’ll work through

Then when we’re together
Even miles apart
We will be as one
By sharing our hearts

We want it enough
The universe will bend
So we’ll hold each other
In the end

A wait I’ll endure
Through thick and thin
Worth every moment
There has ever been

My love for you
Was beyond all compare
That was how I felt
On the last of the year

As the new one begins
I feel I was wrong
It was a mere shadow
Of the love that is to come
