When All Is Said and Done lyrics

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 tracks.
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 any more,
when all is said and done.
 
Standing calmly at the crossroads,
no desire to run.
There’s no hurry any more,
when all is said and done.

Lyrics properly arranged into stanzas. I also added the names of artists who also performed this song, the album of this song and an official video of it.
