Kathy Young & The Innocents - Happy Birthday Blues lyrics

rate me

There she sits all alone, her tear begins to she'd

A written letter in her hand, this is how it read:

Turned sixteen just yesterday

All my world was bright and gay

Thought for sure you'd write or call but you didn't after all

Got the Happy Birthday Blues

Maybe you had lots to do

Or you found somebody new

How I pray you'll hear my plea, I'm as lonely as can be

Got the Happy Birthday Blues

I planned just how this day would be for such a long, long time

You'dwish me Happy Birthday while I held your hand in mine

I'd blow out all the candles while I wished that you and I

Would be together ever more until the day we die

As I sit here in the gloom

Of my cold and lonely room

How my heart is filled with fears and my eyes are filled with tears

Got the Happy Birthday Blues
