Don McLean - Birthday Song lyrics
[Don McLean - Birthday Song lyrics]
It wouldn't be the same
Some things are not spoken of
Some things have no name
And though the words come hard to me
I'll say them just for you
For this is something rare for me
This feeling is so new
You see I love the way you love me
Love the way you smile at me
I love the way we live this life we're in
Long ago I heard the song
That lovers sing to me
And through the days with each new
Phrase I hummed that melody
And all along I loved the song
But I never learned it through
Ah, but since the day you came along
I've saved it just for you
You see I love the way you love me
Love the way you smile at me
I love the way we live this life we're in
I don't believe in magic but
I do believe in you
And when you say you believe in me
There's so much magic I can do
Now you see me, now you don't
Watch me dive below
Deep down in your love lake where
The sweet fish come and go
And I might sink, and I might drown
But death don't mean a thing
'Cause life continues right or wrong
When I play this birthday song
I learned from you and you can't even sing
