It's that time of year again where you grow older and I'm left behind
The time for you to reflect on what you used to be
A new age is created with memories to last you a lifetime
A quick reminder of how old you really are is a nice surprise
Not as good as the ones you will get today for your new exciting future
The world is opened up more for you to be you
You sit back and watch the years fly by and I really don't get why
Just get out doing what you want and don't waste time
Your time is always getting shorter and today is a reminder of that
On your birthday you deserve love with lots of hugs
The messages come in but you don't pay attention
Think now of what they have done for you and you've got time to repay them on their special day
Now just remember as my message is coming to an end
We love you for who you are and you should never change that
Just be you and we will remember you forever even on the day when this comes to an end
