The Birthday Present |
| You got another one coming up |
| Baby don’t be blue |
| I know you’re one year older now |
| Honey I’ve been there too |
| Time flies when we’re fooling around |
| We’re just wasting away |
| You’re dreading the date |
| You’d much rather wait |
| But happy birthday |
| Once we were young and foolish |
| Just starting out on that ride |
| I don’t want to get ghoulish |
| But it seems like time’s no longer on our side |
| It never used to get here |
| It always seemed so far away |
| But now it’s here |
| Same time each year |
| That happy birthday |
| They say that we live many lives |
| I can believe it but I’m still not so sure |
| I don’t know if it’s gonna be a next time |
| But this time I’d like a little more |
| Time that is |
| I’m going to give you a present |
| That’s just what I’m gonna do |
| To remind you to forget the past and the future |
| All that regret and worry’s just bad for you |
| And when you unwrap your present |
| Throw the paper and the ribbon away |
| Remember dear |
| It’s now we’re here |
| So happy birthday |
| You got another one coming up |
| Baby don’t don’t be blue |
