lyrics

The road so far’s been treacherous,
Every terrain adverse.
And up ahead the sky is dark,
We know things will get worse.

So, my friends, come gather ‘round,
This could be our last supper
Let’s gorge ourselves on meat and mead,
And finish off with a cuppa.

Raise your glasses fearlessly
We’ll toast the end of hope
Don’t forget this golden day,
And somehow we shall cope.

Don’t regret the bad times we’ve shared,
Embrace them with the good.
I’d do it all the same again,
In fact I wish that I could.

So this is not a meal of thanks,
More of a celebration,
And when the walls are closing in
We’ll remember this elation.

Soon we’ll go our separate ways,
But first we shall be free
To live one day like it’s our last,
Because it might well be.

Raise your glasses fearlessly
We’ll toast the end of hope
All we need is one good day
To know that we can cope.

Fate waits with awakening,
But first we must decree
To live one day like it’s our last,
Because it might well be.

So here we all are,
I’ll remember you all this way:
Almost dead yesterday, maybe dead tomorrow,
But alive, gloriously alive, today!
