The Toast
I'd like to propose a toast
As we raise our glasses high
Here's to the beginnings
That never got around
All of the lost chances
That never did get found
To all the times you wish you'd tried
But you never did
Lets drink to the open hearts and minds
We all had as kids
Here's to the opportunities
We let blow off in the wind
Hoping that one day they will
Blow back this way again
To all of the lost lovers
That remain thankfully in the past
To those yet in our future
That hopefully will last
As our glasses are still raised high
I toast to you my friends
That we will always have what it is we have
A new beginning with no end
