Good-by, Old Year!
Good-by!
We have been happy — you and I;
We have been glad in many ways;
And now, that you have come to die,
Remembering our happy days,
‘ Tis hard to say, “Good-by —
Good-by, Old Year!
Good-by!”
Good-by, Old Year!
Good-by!
We have seen sorrow — you and I —
Such hopeless sorrow, grief and care,
That now, that you have come to die,
Remembering our old despair,
‘ Tis sweet to say, “Good-by —
Good-by, Old Year!
Good-by!”
