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
