Lyrics Hiss Golden Messenger – Happy Birthday, Baby
Text:
Happy birthday, baby
Go love your brother now
It’s a strange gift maybe
Girl, you know me better than I know myself
I’m trying to repay you
For all these miles that I roam
When I’m far away, baby
Know that I love you and sing this little song
One — was a lonely number
Two — you were born in thunder
Three — it was lightning quick
You lit up the house like a matchstick
Four — child, you’re a wonder
Held me tight when the world went under
Five — sweetheart, only can I tell you I love you?
Happy birthday, baby
Go love your mama now
Well I guess we’d better face it
I’m a lonely swimmer a long, long way from shore
Shall I tell the story
Like there’s only one to tell?
And when you think of me
Think of me better than I think of myself
One — was a lonely number
Two — you were born in thunder
Three — it was lightning quick
You lit up the house like a matchstick
Four — child, you’re a wonder
Held me tight when the world went under
Five — sweetheart, only can I tell you I love you?
