Lyrics
I'm just trying to take a load off
That ain't a crime
Well I tried your bag
Now, you gotta try mine
I've carried you with me every step that I've made
My burden is heavy, and this is how I'm repaid
I can hear the voices when I'm all alone
I hear violins, I hear the drums of Rome
But you're doing that thing you always do
When you've got something to say
Your eyes are on the door
I'm not in your way
I'm not in your way
I hear you say it could be how it used to
We can both be chill
Maybe we both get used to this
But I don't think I will
(It's alright)
Happy birthday to me
I'm all brand new
But how happy should I be
If I don't have you
I am young and I'm free
And that used to do
What is wrong with me
What is wrong with you
Ain't it funny how we always drag up, the same old mistakes
Ain't we just like the fishermen out on the lakes
Or maybe more like palm trees shaking in the desert sun
Ah you've had many sick-scented lovers, but I will not be one
Mary, I will not be one
But it can be like it used to
Listen to the word
Everything that's happened will happen again
You may rest assured
Happy birthday to me
What can I do
There's nothing I'm wanting for
If I can't have you
Happy birthday to me
I woke up alone
You opened up my eyes
You rolled back the stone
Happy birthday to me
Shake me from my sleep
You're the best thing that I have
But cannot keep
