I’ve made it a point to listen to this song on YouTube on December 31st for many years. I don’t bother staying up until midnight or celebrating in any other way on this eve. And when I wonder what’s wrong with me that I don’t want to join the hullabaloo with anyone, I can listen to the words of this song and feel that it’s okay.
I’m including the link to the song that has the lyrics included, in case anyone else will be helped by listening.
Ramblings and Ruminations 
I remember hearing this song, but had forgotten of its existence. Thank you for sharing!
I never really understood all the hype over New Year’s anyway. I mean, I understand we made another revolution around the sun, and I am happy to be alive, but I do not fireworks and champagne to celebrate it. That is just me, though. Different strokes for different folks. I do, however, wish you a great day and a beautiful 2023!!

Happy New Year, my friend! However you celebrate it is fine! No hulabaloo is needed. Wishing you a year filled with good things!

We didn’t do anything either. Perhaps we’re all in need of new rituals.

Maybe just cancel the old ritual of having some hope and faith that the new year will be better than the year we just survived. Hasn’t happened to me for as long as I can remember.
