Birthday

I thought it was your turn to feel alone,

But I knew I was wrong when I hung up the phone,

You've got Mom's eyes and so do I,

Evident in every tone

So I write another letter,

But it all adds up to nothing,

Today is your birthday,

Have a happy birthday,

There's nothing that you wanted

I thought I would have a good explanation,

I wanna go back for your high school graduation,

When you cut your lines through the midnight brine,

It'll be to your best advantage

So I write another letter,

But it all adds up to nothing,

Today is your birthday,

Have a happy birthday,

There's nothing that you wanted

So I write another letter,

But it all adds up to nothing,

Today is your birthday,

Have a happy birthday,

There's nothing that you wanted
