    The fight for our country reminds me on this day of...

    All is quiet on new years day,
    A world in white gets underway,
    And I want to be with you,
    Be with you night and day.
    Nothing changes on new years day.
    I will be with you again.
    I will be with you again.

    Under a blood-red sky
    A crowd has gathered in black and white.
    Arms entwined, the chosen few,
    Newspapers say, it says its true.
    And we can break through,
    Though torn in two we can be one.
    I will begin again, I will begin again.
    Oh and maybe the time is right,
    Oh maybe tonight.
    I will be with you again.
    I will be with you again.

    And so we are told this is the golden age
    And gold is the reason for the wars we wage.
    Though I want to be with you,
    To be with you night and day.
    Nothing changes on new years day.

    Always thought it a powerful song. Getting to be along time ago now.
