Happy Birthday
Happy birthday, sweet surprise
A change in time, you’ve made it through
Light a candle, close your eyes
Taste the cake we’ve baked for you
Share a smile that you have known
As once the child without a fear
My, the way that you have grown
With just the passing of a year
Happy birthday my dear friend
Balloons we’ve filled with gasping breath
Lost in rhymes within the wind
Now as you lay yourself to rest
Age has left your body weak
But still inside you are alive
Chase your dreams, the heart it seeks
To find your peace as you arrive
They are the times we can’t forget
In every line we speak hereof
The perfect reason for this fest
Happy birthday my sweet love
