happy birthday to me
as my eyes fill with tears
where have I been
for 15 of these years
so many things happened
yet I'm still so young
youthful is what I am
yet not an inexperienced one
so happy birthday to me
as I look back on my life
so many reasons to cry
I'm wondering if I've done things right
so happy birthday to me
as I reminse for a while
so many happy moments
so many reasons to smile
so happy birthday to me
and I hope the happiness lasts
friends, jokes, tears, love
family, moments, smiles and laughs
here I am and why am I celebrating
I'm not the age I want to be
so I'll just keep anticipating
an age to be allowed
to experience at best
an age where I won't be questioned
questioned by the rest
an age when I'm allowed to feel
an age when you'll realize it's real
happy birthday to me
I'll be waiting for a while
for my birthday to be happy
once I see you smile
