歌曲 | Tears At The Birthday Party |
歌手 | Elvis Costello |
专辑 | Painted From Memory |
作词 : Bacharach, Costello | |
Think back now when we were young | |
There were always tears at the birthday party | |
You know how children can be so cruel | |
That's how it starts | |
But what if we never learn how to behave? | |
I did something and you never forgave me | |
I never thought that it could be like this but now | |
I seeI see you share your cake with him | |
Unwrapping presents that | |
I should have sent | |
What can I do, must | |
I watch you? | |
Close the door, dim the lights, blow out the candles | |
So happy birthday again | |
And it's the same every year | |
Seems that | |
I remember it as something more | |
But you know how children can grow | |
So strange, | |
I still adore you | |
What if we never learn from our mistakes? | |
But then, you'll never know how my heart aches | |
I never thought that it would be like this but now | |
I seeI see you share your cake with him | |
Unwrapping presents that | |
I should have sent | |
What can I do, must | |
I watch you? | |
Close the door, dim the lights, blow out the candles | |
So happy birthday again(Close the door, dim the lights, blow out the candles)(So happy birthday again) | |
One day I know you'll forget | |
To pay you the compliments you're after | |
You'll hang your sad, aching head | |
Behind a brittle smile or a shrill of laughter | |
What if we only get what we deserve? | |
Somehow I couldn't quite summon the nerve | |
Upon each anniversary | |
Then do you ever think of me? | |
Unwrapping presents that | |
I should have sent | |
What can I do, must | |
I watch you? | |
Close the door, dim the lights, blow out the candles | |
So happy birthday again(Close the door, dim the lights, blow out the candles) | |
So happy birthday again | |
Close the door, dim the lights, blow out the candles | |
So happy birthday again | |
Close the door, dim the lights, blow out the candles |
