歌词:
I wish I could wish you happy birthday
But I know you don't want to see me
I wish I could sing you happy birthday
But I know it don't make you happy
Another year is gone
And I'm the one who's still alone
Hope you're having a happy birthday
I hope it's happy even though you're without me
I wish we could both walk home together
Just like it used to be
And then I'd bake you a birthday cake
Made from a secret recipe
You would make your wish
If I had mine it'd be like this
Hope you're having a happy birthday
I hope it's happy even though you're without me
Don't you know I'll spend it with you
If you only wanted me to
I wish I could bring you birthday presents
But you're a girl with everything
I wanted to take your hand today
But now you're wearing a wedding ring
Well, I can always dream
Well, I can raise my voice and sing
Hope you're having a happy birthday
I hope it's happy even though you're without me
Don't you know I'll spend it with you
If you only wanted me to
