Birthday

I thought it was your turn to feel alone
But I knew I was wrong when I hung up the phone
You've got Mom's eyes and so do I
Evident in every tone

So I write another letter
But it all adds up to nothing
Today is your birthday
Have a happy birthday
There's nothing that you wanted

I thought I would have a good explanation
I wanna go back for your high school graduation
When you cut your lines through the midnight brine
It'll be to your best advantage

So I write another letter
But it all adds up to nothing
Today is your birthday
Have a happy birthday
There's nothing that you wanted

So I write another letter
But it all adds up to nothing
Today is your birthday
Have a happy birthday
There's nothing that you wanted
