Salutations Songtext
von Richie Cunning

Salutations folks, I′m your gracious host
And I'd just like to take a moment to make a toast
No famous quotes, no tasteless jokes
Just raise your glass like its your last, ain′t no way to know

Here's to the days we do, here's to the days we don′t
Here′s to the days that we walk out on the stage and choke
Here's to the sunny days that still leave our faces soaked
Here′s to my favorite folks that make my heart ache the most


Here's to everybody hopin to escape their ghosts
Here′s to all the wrong ways to cope
Here's to you and what you gotta do to make your boat stay afloat
Plus an inflated coat, just in case it don′t

Ups and downs, life is like an elevator
But every trip to the basement feels like the brakes are broke
A card table in a wave of smoke
Play it close to the chest, jack, don't ever let your aces show

Even when fate has erased the last trace of hope
Even when you pavin a road with no place to go
The story ain't over until the last page is wrote and
A love song is all talk til you play the notes so


Salutations folks, I′m your gracious host
And I′d just like to take a moment to make a toast
No famous quotes, no tasteless jokes
Just raise your glass like its your last, ain't no way to know
