Hank Locklin - Happy Birthday To Me lyrics

rate me

Today has been my birthday and tonight I should be glad

But you weren't here to share it and inside I hurt so bad

I didn't want your presents just your kiss and 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 love that used to be

I unwrapped the tiny package that I bought myself

Then I sang happy birthday to me

[ piano ]

I thought for sure you sent me at least a birthday card

But the postman didn't even stop when he passed by my yard

You could have telephone and ease a lot of misery

Instead I called myself and said happy birthday to me

And I came home all by myself...
