I Wish I Could - The Ditty Bops

I wish I could wish you happy birthday

But I know you don't want to see me

I wish I could sing you happy birthday

But I know it don't make you happy

Another year is gone

And I'm the one who's still alone

Hope you're having a happy birthday

I hope it's happy even though you're without me

I wish we could both walk home together

Just like it used to be

And then I'd bake you a birthday cake

Made from a secret recipe

You would make your wish

If I had mine it'd be like this

Hope you're having a happy birthday

I hope it's happy even though you're without me

Don't you know I'll spend it with you

If you only wanted me to

I wish I could bring you birthday presents

But you're a girl with everything

I wanted to take your hand today

But now you're wearing a wedding ring

Well I can always dream

Well I can raise my voice and sing

Hope you're having a happy birthday

I hope it's happy even though you're without me

Don't you know I'll spend it with you

If you only wanted me to
