Waiting so long

Locked up in a world so small

But that's over now

I'm happily free again

Everything's changed, but my heart's still the same as back then

And even though it has to be different

I've still got so much to do with you

And we toast to life

It's never too late for that

To the love we share

That's what really matters

No, I won't miss a chance

Every day is a gift

And you don't have to want everything

Life's already so beautiful

So I'm content

With everything that comes my way

Forget the past now

Then we'll make a new start

And we toast to life

It's never too late for that

To the love we share

That's what really matters

And we toast to life

It's never too late for that

To the love we share

That's what really matters

And we toast to life

To the love we share

And we toast to life

To the love we share

And we toast to life

It's never too late for that

To the love we share

That's what really matters

And we toast to life

It's never too late for that

To the love we share

That's what really matters

SONG MEANING

Raise your glass! In “Proosten Op Het Leven,” Dutch singer André Hazes celebrates the sweet rush of freedom after feeling boxed in for far too long. The narrator has finally broken out of a “wereld zo klein” (a world so small) and is thrilled to be free again. Although everything around him has changed, his heart is still the same, and he cannot wait to share new adventures with the person he loves.

The chorus is a joyful invitation to toast to life itself. Hazes reminds us that it is never too late to celebrate love, to seize every chance, and to appreciate each day as a gift. By leaving the past behind and focusing on what truly matters—togetherness and gratitude—the song encourages listeners to live in the moment, cherish simple pleasures, and keep clinking their glasses to the beauty of now.
