Darren Hanlon – Happy Birthday (For Yesterday) lyrics
Did you skate figure eight
On the ice in Central Park?
Did you throw balls of snow
At your friends until dark?
I guess I wanted to say
I first called you when I woke up
I think it was almost eight
But I probably just missed you
I must have been too late
Called back that night at seven-thirty
Then I waited up till ten
In the dark in my pajamas
As the phone rang out again
Did the host raise a toast
To the day your life began?
Did someone bake your favourite cake
With your name in marzipan?
I just called to say
Happy birthday for
I couldn't help but think of last year
When it was just us two
But I'm sure you can celebrate
Without the help of you-know-who
And if all the gang were with you
It must have been a gas
Didn't want you to think that
I forgot, I kid you not
Now, did you go to a show
And sentimentally keep the stub?
Did you give hugs from the drugs
That you bought in a night club?
I just called to say
Happy birthday
For yesterday
On the ice in Central Park?
Did you throw balls of snow
At your friends until dark?
I guess I wanted to say
I first called you when I woke up
I think it was almost eight
But I probably just missed you
I must have been too late
Called back that night at seven-thirty
Then I waited up till ten
In the dark in my pajamas
As the phone rang out again
Did the host raise a toast
To the day your life began?
Did someone bake your favourite cake
With your name in marzipan?
I just called to say
Happy birthday for
I couldn't help but think of last year
When it was just us two
But I'm sure you can celebrate
Without the help of you-know-who
And if all the gang were with you
It must have been a gas
Didn't want you to think that
I forgot, I kid you not
Now, did you go to a show
And sentimentally keep the stub?
Did you give hugs from the drugs
That you bought in a night club?
I just called to say
Happy birthday
For yesterday
