Raleigh Ritchie - The Birthday Girl lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Not out of the woods yet, haven't brought the goods yet

Are we here to say goodbye?

I wish I could support you, I wish I could afford to

Give me one more chance to shine!

And if I know that I don't live up to this

I'll stay in the wilderness staring at a lonely sky

It's what I deserve, what I should be reduced to

And I won't even ask why you brought me in your car booth

(Chorus)

And I am curious as to why you're so furious

And I know your news is serious

(Verse)

We could've gone anywhere if you wanna shoot the breeze

But I remember you said you're at one with the trees

If you're sick of my questions I won't say a word

But one quick suggestion: fuck what you heard!

If this is a test, dear, I wanna pass, flying colours

And baby, we're the best, we're better than the others

(Chorus)

So I am curious as to why you're so furious

And I know your news is serious

(Instrumental break)

(Verse)

What's that in your bag, dear? I hope it's just a kiss

You shouldn't be so mad, dear, on a night clear as this

I hope that's not a hammer, I pray it's just a rose

Stop thrashing at my head, love, stop pulling on my clothes!

I'm starting to feel weak, bae, it's cold here on the grass

I can't even speak babe, but I really need to ask

Was it something that I did? I need to be reminded

I need to be reminded, I've got it, I know it's too late

I wish I could explain, please don't walk away!

My sight's beginning to fade

And the lights are turning to grey

And the night is starting to change

Sorry I missed your birthday!
