1.)  There’s a man by himself.  There’s a lady alone.
      When will they meet in the city?  And New York
       is the town, the odds they are none, but it happened
      one night in the city.  Now believe what you may.  This
      Story is true.  The night that they met was forever.

Chorus

What is forever?  Forever is a time;  hurt left behind you,
Anxiety Auld Lang Syne.  Fear that is lost, for a moment never
Forget, the time that’s spent, leave all loneliness and regret
behind you…

2.)   After the honeymoon, came the in-laws, then the kids, the sweet-
       ness and love would wait till retirement.  Hard work, no regrets,
       first the bills then the rents, getting by on their love for 
       each other.  The kids are raised and gone.  The couple has grown
       old.  As one they'll live their life together.   (Chorus)

3.)    Fifty years down the road, the lady's alone.  It happened one
        night in the silence.  Her loved one slipped away, patiently she
        anticipates for the time that they'll be together.  Two years have
        gone by.  Passes on finally.  It happened at last in forever. (Chorus)
