• New year, fresh slate
    Come, the future now awaits
    Gone the year 2008
    New year, fresh slate

    Welcome, new year
    Let us forget our old fears
    Wipe away our old-year tears
    Welcome, new year

    Soon we'll forget
    The hope with this year we met
    New worries make a new net
    Soon we'll forget

    New year, fresh slate
    Come the future now awaits
    Gone the year 2008
    New year, fresh slate
