| Hello, darlin', happy birthday
|
| I’ve decided not to give you a present this year
|
| In fact I think it’s about time
|
| I took some things away
|
| I’d like to take away the suspicion
|
| That I know clouds your world at times
|
| By giving you some faith to hold onto honey
|
| Whenever your hand is not in mine
|
| Happy birthday darlin'
|
| I’ve no presents, no fancy cake
|
| But I hope I’ll make you happy
|
| With everything I take
|
| I’d like to take away some of your lonely moments
|
| By spending more of mine with you
|
| And I’d like to take away some of those so-so kisses
|
| And replace them with ones that really say «I love you»
|
| And I wanna take away the doubt you sometimes have about my love
|
| By showing more… much more that I’ve shown lately
|
| And then if someone should ask you what I’ve got you for your birthday
|
| Well you can say, «Why he didn’t give me anything but he sure took a lotta
|
| things away»
|
| Happy birthday darlin'
|
