Happy New Year!

Auld Lang Syne
~James Taylor lyrics from A Christmas Album
(Click below for a nice version of the song.)

Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and never brought to mind ?
Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and old lang syne ?

CHORUS:

For auld lang syne, my dear,
for auld lang syne,
we'll take a cup of kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

And surely you’ll buy your pint cup !
and surely I’ll buy mine !
And we'll take a cup o’ kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

CHORUS

We two have run about the hills,
and gathered up lovers fine ;
We’ve wandered many a weary foot,
since auld lang syne.

CHORUS

We two have sported in the brook,
from morning sun till dine† ;
But seas between us have roared and swelled
since auld lang syne.

CHORUS

And there’s a hand my trusty friend !
And give me a hand o’ thine !
And we’ll take a cup of kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

CHORUS
