Birthday
[Verse One]
Every single birthday I promise I am gonna change
But I can never take the first step
Every single New Years I promise they'll be no more tears
I can only take what I get
[Chorus]
What I get is that
You will never, never, never let go
What I feel is that
You may never, never, never wanna know
Me for who I really am
[Verse Two]
Every single Hanukkah,
I promise I am gonna come shimmying out of my shell
Every single Rosh Hashanah,
Shrouded in a Hallelujah, listen for the holiest bell
[Chorus]
What I feel is that
You will never, never, never let go
What I fear is that
You may never, never, never wanna know
Me for who I really am
[Post-Chorus]
La da da, La da da da
[Verse Three]
Every single birthday seen singing to a cupcake
I'm lonely as a grain of loose sand
Every single New Years I promise they'll be no more tears
Hoping for a dose of dry land
[Chorus]
What I hope is that
You will someday, someday, someday let go
What I wish is that
You will one day, one day, one day wanna
Know me for who I really am
[Outro]
La da da, da da da da
La da da, La da da, da da da da
