Your bottle of wine has tipped over
The table has an uneven leg
Did you make amends with the neighbor
Did you happen to make up the bed

It’s been a very long winter
A ghost and a puzzle to solve
The color has drained from your face dear
Nothing to do but dissolve

Happy Birthday to me
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to all we’ve been through

Who can you say is the winner
Are they the young or the old
How do we judge who’s the loser
Who’s gonna take home the gold

Happy Birthday to me
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to all we’ve been through

Are you OK
Do your feelings betray
Can we act our age

A kiss at this bend in the river
Forgotten moments to steal
This thing that we call human nature
We’re told it’s a part of the deal

Happy Birthday to me
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to all we’ve been through
Happy Birthday to all we’ve been through
