Last year's wishes come back again
A whole new year for me
With one coming to an end
Where part of me lost friends
Time frame us to now is relative
A birthday party and I haven't seen you since
And somehow it's different
And every now and again
The thoughts get in my head
And every now and again
More than I admit
And I guess I just noticed something has changed
A quiet shift
I can't give it a name
It's not that deep but it still gets to me
And I guess I'm just hoping you'll show up late
Blow out a candle for my birthday
A year to the date
We started to drift away
Looking back, it was in front of me
At my party where I watched you leave early
And now it all hits me
That's when it started all happening
A missed goodbye and I never got another chance
Memories with a new lens
And every now and again
The thoughts get in my head
And every now and again
More than I admit
And I guess I just noticed something has changed
A quiet shift
I can't give it a name
It's not that deep but it still gets to me
And I guess I'm just hoping you'll show up late
Blow out a candle for my birthday
A year to the date
We started to drift away
...
And I know sometimes
It just ends up this way
Go from friends to a feeling tied to a name
...
No one loses and no one wins
So why am thinking about you again
It's not that deep but it still gets to me
I thought of you and got sick from my cake
Blew out the candles on the 28th
A year to the date
We started to drift away
