[Verse 1]
Don't blow your candles out
It isn't midnight yet
Slowly, her hands lie down
And take my lips to bed
Don't go, I cannot cry
I'd kiss you if you'd let me
Smoke glowing, dancing
I now see, your wish was for me

[Verse 2]
I'd burn a thousand more
If it meant I could stay
And I'd learn to doubt the shore
Was met with ocean waves
I'd teach the clouds to pour
I'd turn the nights to days
But I turn, and close the door
Sing, "Happy birthday babe"
Sing, "Happy birthday babe"
