Unhappy Birthday

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)
