New Year's Day

If I had to die tonight
I'd like to think we'd be alright
What a life, man, what a life
From the cradle to the grave
I scream and echoes will remain
What a life, man, when you're strange

Did you learn to ride the pain
Like tears in the rain? (Ah)
Was your world insane? (Ooh)
Did you take aim?

Happy days are here again
If we can't be lovers, let's be friends
I just called to say
Happy New Year's Day
Don't know what we're fighting for
But I can't do it anymore
I just called to say
Happy New Year's Day

(Ah)
You're out of sight, not out of mind
If I could pause or rewind
I'd rewind man, I'd rewind (ooh)
When I die, I'll die laughing
Don't cry 'cause it's over, smile 'cause it happened
What a life, man, what a life

I'm still learning to ride the pain
Like a bike through the rain (ah)
Is anything changed (ooh)
Should I take aim? (Fire)

Happy days are here again
If we can't be lovers, let's be friends
I just called to say
Happy New Year's Day
Don't know what we're fighting for
But I can't do it anymore
I just called to say
Happy New Year's Day

Oh, it's an energy
Oh, the memories
I hope you remember me and be happy
Oh, it's an energy
Oh, the memories
I hope you remember me and be happy

(Happy, happy)
(Happy, happy)
(Happy, happy)
(Happy New Year's Day)

Happy days are here again
