I get sentimental at my birthday, and often need friends and family to make me really enjoy that time of year. This song is a love song for friendship. It's the best gift anyone can ever give.
Lyrics
I can't write the words to say
what I felt when I saw you walk away.
But let's say when you came back in the room
it felt like all my birthdays came at once.
You were there for all of them, you cut the cake,
made the speeches and stuck around to clean me up.
I didn't want to blow out the candles, because then the party's over.
The clown's been and gone, the games were played - we pinned the tail on the wall (near the donkey) - we're well and truly past the 'pass-the-parcel stage'.
I didn't want to wrap the cake in serviettes.
I have unwrapped everything, but I'd be happy with nothing at all - your presence was the greatest gift you gave, and I wonder if you recall: the knife came out dirty when I cut the cake and I saved my kiss for you, out of luck you were the nearest girl, which also means my wish came true...
