Don't you ask me what I want now
You're in my mind and I want you so loud
You're the one with whom I want to be

My darling say you'll spend your life with me

I wish I could give you a star from the skies
Or put you deep behind my eyes
So you can see what it is I see in you
And feel the love, the love the way that I do

I wish we could lie right now on a beach
Or even to have you within my reach
I wish I could give you something you could hold
Not made of silver, and not made of gold

But something immaterial, just something true
Something to show my love, my love for you

But what I can, I will give you tonight
Happy birthday, now lie down and don't fight
Happy birthday, twist your head with delight
Happy birthday, scream it to the night
Happy birthday, hold me tight
Happy birthday, stare up into the light...
