This song was written with Harry Deligter, a wonderful accompanist pianist. He wrote the melody to the bridge which has so much power. Thank you, Harry! Dedicated to Perlene Thurston.
lyrics
BRAVO
w: Suzy Williams m: Suzy Williams and Harry Delighter c 2007
My Attitude Is gratitude
And here's the reason why:
Once I couldn't see a moonbow or a sunset sky
But now my eyes are open
And I can finally see
And life's become so precious to me
(bridge)
The burning fire that I've been thru
has made me who I am
So i say "Bravo, Bravo Bravo!"
I have learned by getting burned just how to give a damn
Saying "Bravo, Bravo, Bravo"
(instrumental on A section, then repeat bridge)
Bravo to the Universe for making it worthwhile
Praises to the wisdom that has taught me how to smile
Opened up, I fill my cup
Toasting "Thank you, Ma'am"
Bravo Bravo Bravo
Bravo....Bravo... Bravo.
