Happy Birthday Lyrics

The one time a year we keep in touch

A quick text back

Don't talk much

Our once golden love has gone so blue

From secrets shared

To, "I knew you"

'Cause we had closed the chapter

Crossed out happy ever after

And I wish that I would've made the call

Today's your special day

But there's something still so grey

And I don't know if time could slow itself enough

To tell you I miss you

How I wish that I could pull through

But you're a thousand laughs we never got to make

Happy birthday

These moments in time are in my head

In 7th grade

Right when you said,

"I promise that I'll stick by your side"

Know you meant it

Know you tried

'Cause we had closed the chapter

Crossed out happy ever after

And I wish that I would've made the call

Today's your special day

But there's something still so grey

And I don't know if time could slow itself enough

To tell you I miss you

How I wish that I could pull through

But you're a thousand laughs we never got to make

Happy birthday

I don't wanna be someone that you can barely recognize

I don't wanna be someone you see once more this lifetime

'Cause I was your number one

I was where you would run

Today's your special day

But you know that I have to say

Oh I wish that we didn't slowly drift apart

Today's your special day

But there's something still so grey

And I don't know if time could slow itself enough

To tell you I miss you

How I wish that I could pull through

But you're just someone who I still pretend to know

I wish I had the guts to say

More than, "happy birthday"

More than, "happy birthday"
