New Year's Falls Just at the Darkest Hour

Music: Black Mary.
Sequenced by Barry Taylor.

New Year's falls just at the darkest hour,
Even as the sun lies sick and dying.
When the darkness turns hope starts anew,
Year by year a lesson ever true,
Each of us the bitter cold defying.
All my life I want to be with you,
Restoring year by year our love-vined bower.
