The Bright New Year
Bert Jansch
Hello mother dear
I hope you are well and happy today
I do love you and think of you
Each single day
I dream of seeing you happy
In summertime I thought
That I would be able to see you again
I do love you and think of you
Each single day
I dream of seeing you happy
As the bright new year
Draws closer now
I'm on my way
To bring you my love
And wish you good cheer
Mother dear
I hope you are well and happy today
I do love you and think of you
Each single day
I dream of seeing you happy
