Lyrics Peter Hollens – New Year Song (Auld Lang Syne)
Text:
Should old acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should old acquaintance be forgot,
In the days of auld lang syne?
Looking back on all the years gone by
How I loved, how I’ve lost, and when I cried
The memories in my heart, I will carry with the scars
As my light for my journey on
Should old acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should old acquaintance be forgot,
In the days of auld lang syne?
When I picture what the world could be
We are kind, we are one, we are free
There’s no hatred in our hearts
And no one to tear apart all the joy
For our journey on
Should old acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should old acquaintance be forgot,
In the days of auld lang syne?
For auld lang syne, my dear
For auld lang syne
We’ll take a cup of kindness, dear
For the days of auld lang syne
Let’s live in love and kindness, dear
In the days of auld lang syne
