carry these words to the grave
There comes a time in my life
I despise happy birthdays
Another year added is closer
To one less with you
I know that it's morbid but I
Can't help think your days are numbered
Just tell me how much more time
Do I get to spend with you
I know
While I'm living my life out here on my own
You're back home
And I don't get to see every moment that I hoped
But I still have to say that I love you
I still have to say I adore you
I still call your name when I need you, it's true
But I'll carry these words to the grave
Cos my pride gets in the way
I take for granted that things never change
As I see you everyday
I'll carry these words to the grave
Forget those wrinkles on your face
Say a prayer that things never change
Though I know they will someday
Candles on the cake glow bright
As I sing you happy birthday
I wonder if the wish you made
Was the same as mine too
Many more years of delight
Without time whelming us two
There's never a thing as enough
When it comes to being with you
I know
While I'm living my life out here on my own
You're back home
And I don't get to see every moment that I hoped
But I still have to say that I love you
I still have to say I adore you
I still call your name when I need you, it's true
But I'll carry these words to the grave
Cos my pride gets in the way
I take for granted that things never change
As I see you everyday
I'll carry these words to the grave
Forget those wrinkles on your face
Say a prayer that things never change
Though I know they will someday
Oh when that someday comes
I will cry a thousand tons
But I hope by then
I would have said all that I've meant
Captured in this song
You would have heard the words
I've kept in my heart
Oh that I love you so
More than words will ever know
Every moment now
I'll keep and cherish somehow
Yea I wrote this song
For you to hear the words
I've kept in my heart
Cos I still have to say that I love you
I still have to say I adore you
I still call your name when I need you, it's true
But I'll carry these words to the grave
Cos my pride gets in the way
I take for granted that things never change
As I see you everyday
I'll carry these words to the grave
Forget those wrinkles on your face
Say a prayer that things never change
Though I know they will someday
