Happy Birthday - For Yesterday |
Did you skate figure eight |
On the ice in Central Park? |
Did you throw balls of snow |
At your friends until dark? |
I guess I wanted to say… |
I first called you when I woke up |
I think it was almost eight |
But I probably just missed you |
I must have been too late |
Called back that night at seven-thirty |
Then I waited up till ten |
In the dark in my pajamas |
As the phone rang out again |
Did the host raise a toast |
To the day your life began? |
Did someone bake your favourite cake |
With your name in marzipan? |
I just called to say |
Happy birthday for… |
I couldn’t help but think of last year |
When it was just us two |
But I’m sure you can celebrate |
Without the help of you-know-who |
And if all the gang were with you |
It must have been a gas |
Didn’t want you to think that |
I forgot, I kid you not |
Now, did you go to a show |
And sentimentally keep the stub? |
Did you give hugs from the drugs |
That you bought in a night club? |
I just called to say |
Happy birthday |
For yesterday |
