You love white icing
And you hate big parties 
And your mom always calls at 12:17 

You got real quiet 
When I made of big deal of it 
But that kiss on the forehead let me know you liked it

But that was a year ago 
What a special day
Hard to believe now all I get to say is

Happy Birthday 
Staring at my phone
Happy Birthday
Are you spending it alone? 
Are you with someone, someone I used to be? 
Are you getting drunk, drunk at a party?
Maybe you’re missing me
I hope you’re happy 
Happy Birthday, oh [x2]
 
I loved that t-shirt 
I hated that you had to work 
I burnt the cake and we both acted like we didn’t know 
It was comfortable (comfortable)
We kept it low key (low key) 
Just a simple celebration, you and me

But that was a year ago 
What a special day 
Hard to believe now all I get to say is

Happy Birthday 
Staring at my phone
Happy Birthday
Are you spending it alone? 
Are you with someone, someone I used to be? 
Are you getting drunk, drunk at a party?
Maybe you’re missing me
I hope you’re happy 
Happy Birthday, oh [x2]

Happy Birthday to you 
(Happy birthday to you) 
Happy Birthday to you
(Happy birthday to you)
You know I’m missing you…

Happy Birthday 
Staring at my phone
Happy Birthday
Are you spending it alone? 
Are you with someone, someone I used to be? 
Are you getting drunk, drunk at a party?
Maybe you’re missing me
I hope you’re happy 
Happy Birthday, oh [x2]
