Here's to Life

My mother received a link to a song from an old friend of hers. It's a cover of the song “Here's to Life” by Shirley Horn. I find it absolutely beautiful.

So...

No complaints And no regrets I still believe in chasing dreams And placing bets But I have learned That all you give Is all you get So give it all you've got

I had my share I drank my fill And even though I'm satisfied I'm hungry still To see what's down another road Beyond the hill And do it all again So here's to life And every joy it brings So here's to life To dreamers and their dreams

Funny how the time just flies How love can go From warm hellos To sad goodbyes And leave you with the memories You've memorized To keep your winters warm

For there's no yes in yesterday And who knows what tomorrow brings Or takes away As long as I'm still in the game I want to play For laughs For life For love

So here's to life And every joy it brings Here's to life For dreamers and their dreams

May all your storms be weathered And all that's good get better Here's to life Here's to love Here's to you

May all your storms be weathered And all that's good get better Here's to life Here's to love Here's to you
