All is quiet on New Year's day A world in white gets underway And I want to be with you Be with you night and day Nothing changes on New Year's day I will be with you again I will be with you again Under a blood-red sky A crowd has gathered in black and white Arms entwined, the chosen few Newspapers say, it says it's true it's true And we can break through Through torn in two we can be one I will begin again I will begin again Oh and maybe the time is right Oh maybe tonight I will be with you again I will be with you again And so we are told this is the golden age And gold is the reason for the wars we wage Though I want to be with you To be with you night and day Nothing changes on New Year's day
