Happy Days And Auld Lang Syne

He said, Dear, I'm leaving, right there in the hallway As the party roared on all around And her head wouldn't turn, O she couldn't look at him In a whirlpool she quietly drowned And she said to herself, I won't cry, I won't grieve But I'll laugh and I'll flow with the wine With the fast love of strangers we'll sing Sweet Bye and Bye Happy Days and Auld Lang Syne How I wish I knew All the old songs they're singing Such comfort they're bringing To a heart that's as empty as mine O it lifts you so high Does the Sweet Bye and Bye Happy Days and Auld Lang Syne And she said, I'll be wearing my smile like a mask And I'll care for each stranger I kiss And no-one will know that I'm wounded and cheated So close to my moment of bliss And sometimes you never connect with a song Till it's telling the way that you feel Putting words to your story, all the pain and the glory How can it be written so real How I wish I knew All the old songs they're singing Such comfort they're bringing To a heart that's as empty as mine O it lifts you so high Does the Sweet Bye and Bye Happy Days and Auld Lang Syne
