Songtext von Happy Birthday (For Yesterday)

Did you skate figure eight on the ice in Central Park? Did you throw balls of snow at your friends until dark? I guess I wanted to say... I first called you when I woke up I think it was almost eight But I probably just missed you I must have been too late Called back that night at seven-thirty Then I waited up till ten In the dark in my pajamas as the phone rang out again Did the host raise a toast to the day your life began? Did someone bake your favourite cake with your name in marzipan? I just called to say Happy birthday for... I couldn't help but think of last year when it was just us two But I'm sure you can celebrate without the help of you-know-who And if all the gang were with you it must have been a gas Didn't want you to think that I forgot, I kid you not Now, did you go to a show and sentimentally keep the stub? Did you give hugs from the drugs that you bought in a night club? I just called to say Happy birthday for yesterday
