| Light a candle, has it really been ten years
|
| Doctor says where does it hurt son
|
| It hurts here, and here, and here
|
| Unhappy birthday
|
| Light a candle, waking up in a cold sweat
|
| You would think I’d just roll over
|
| You would think that I’d forget
|
| Unhappy birthday
|
| But I ain’t gonna cry today
|
| Light a candle, but let’s not sing that song
|
| How could this day that feels like Yesterday
|
| But with us for so long
|
| Unhappy birthday
|
| Light a candle, but I think I’ll skip the cake
|
| Seems I need something slightly stronger
|
| To tak away this ache
|
| Unhappy birthday
|
| But I ain’t gonna cry today
|
| At the gates of Harlem, I stood upon great hill
|
| And I swear, I could see those sisters
|
| Just standing there still
|
| So light a candle
|
| One for every single tear
|
| One for every single second
|
| And every single year
|
| Unhappy birthday
|
| Light a candle, a thousand candles in the night
|
| Let’em burn trough' til the morning
|
| We’ll see that sweat September light
|
| Unhappy birthday
|
| But I ain’t gonna cry today (happy birthday)
|
| No, ain’t gonna see me cry today
|
| No you, ain’t never gonna see me
|
| (Cry today) cry today, (happy birthday)
|
| No ain’t, you never gonna see me
|
| See me cry today (cry today), (happy birthday)
|
| Cry today (happy birthday)
|
| Cry today (happy birthday) |
