There's a new moon over Jamaica   And the new year just got here, you see   There's a new moon over Jamaica   And I'm living with an old memory      So won't you come back to Jamaica?   You know it isn't so far   Look up in the sky where you left me that night   I'll be standing right under that star      There's a new moon over Jamaica   And the new year just got here, you see   There's a new moon over Jamaica   And I'm living with an old memory      I said good evening to Venus   She said good evening too   Out there somewhere, you know I could swear   She sent a message of true love from you      There's a new moon over Jamaica   And the new year just got here, you see   There's a new moon over Jamaica   And I'm living with an old memory      A new moon makes someone feel happy   A new moon makes someone lovesick   I'm thinking of you, but what can I do?   New moons and new years and old love's don't mix      There's a new moon over Jamaica   And the new year just got here, you see   There's a new moon over Jamaica   And I'm living with an old memory      Just the new year, a new moon and me
