When All Is Said and Done

Here's to us, one more toast, and then we'll pay the bill

Deep inside, both of us can feel the autumn chill

Birds of passage, you and me, we fly instinctively

When the summer's over and the dark clouds hide the sun,

Neither you nor I'm to blame when all is said and done



In our lives, we have walked some strange and lonely treks

Slightly worn but dignified and not too old for sex

We're still striving for the sky, no taste for humble pie

Thanks for all your generous love and thanks for all the fun

Neither you nor I'm to blame when all is said and done



It's so strange when you're down and lying on the floor

How you rise, shake your head, get up and ask for more

Clear-headed and open-eyed with nothing left untried

Standing calmly at the crossroads, no desire to run

There's no hurry anymore when all is said and done



Standing calmly at the crossroads, no desire to run

There's no hurry anymore when all is said and done
