the blood rushed as I entered this time of year
excitement of the thought to make you happy
as if I was the one to celebrate
when it was all about you
spent my nights awake
scarred my fingers to make you something hard to forget
cancelled my plans just to make it to you
wrote down letters to kiss you through words
this time of year
was all about you
darling, I loved you hard
I prayed for you all the time
I wanted you to be happy
but this time of year
I forgot you had your birthday
I wanted me to be happy
so I spend my nights sleeping softly
forgetting these nights were about you
I smile for the fact that I slowly erase you off my mind
honey, you were all I wanted
but nothing stays the same
so do my feelings
