What we want is a brand new year
Open your heart and set us free
What we need is a brand new life
We'll decide on our own destiny

What we want is a brand new life
Brother and sister, husband, wife
Single and lonely, living in fear
What we want is a brand new year

While this year is still young enough for laughter
We must insist that no tears follow after
Resolve to be strong and right the wrong
Inflicted on you and me

What we want is a brand new life
For brother and sister, husband, wife
Single and lonely, living in fear
What we want is a brand new year

You know there are changes waiting in the future
Some of them will hurt you, some of them will suit you
There's just one thing to be certain of
You control your own destiny

What we want is a brand new life
For brothers and sister, husband, wife
Single and lonely, living in fear
What we want is a brand new year

What we want is a new conception
A child to lead us out of here
Free from mistrust with no deception
What we want is a brand new year

While the midnight bells are rung
We are waking from a peaceful dream
Where children go to school and play the fool
Decide their own destiny

While this year's still young
You've got to show us that our kids are totally free
They wanna go to school, wanna play the fool
They gotta decide on their own destiny
They got to set the course of their own destiny
They gotta have pride enough to know their own destiny, yeah

What we want is a brand new year
Open your hearts and set them free
What we need is a brand new start
And to decide on our own destiny

What we want is a brand new year
Open your hearts and set them free
What we need is a brand new start
And to decide on our own destiny

What we want is a brand new year
Open your hearts and set them free

What we want is a brand new year
Open your hearts and set them free
What we need is a brand new start
And to decide on our own destiny

What we want is a brand new year
Open your hearts and set them free

All shall be well and all shall be well
And all manner of things are gonna be well
All shall be well and all shall be well
And all manner of things are gonna be well

All shall be well and all shall be well
And all manner of things are gonna be well
All shall be well and all shall be well
And all manner of things are gonna be well

All shall be well and all shall be well
And all manner of things are gonna be well
All shall be well and all shall be well
And all manner of things are gonna be well
