Happy Birthday to Me

Today has been my birthday, and tonight I should be glad
But you weren't there to share it, and inside it hurts so bad
I didn't want your presents, just your kiss & company
And your lips to softly whisper Happy Birthday to me

But I came home all by myself and lit the candles
Made a wish for you and all that used to be
Then I unwrapped the tiny package that I bought myself
Then I sang happy birthday to me

I thought for sure you'd send me, at least a birthday card
But the postman didn't even stop when he passed by my yard
You could have telephoned to releive a lot of misery
But then I stopped & then I sang Happy Birthday to me

But I came home all by myself and lit the candles
Made a wish for you and all that used to be
Then I unwrapped the tiny package that I bought myself
Then I sang happy birthday to me
