Rachael Sage - Birthday Lyrics

Every single birthday I promise I am gonna change but
I can never take the first step
Every single New Year’s I promise there’ll be no more tears but
I can only take what I get

What I get is that you will never, never, never let go
What I feel is that you may never, never, never
Wanna know me for who I really am

Every single Hanukah I promise I am gonna come
Shimmying out of my shell
Every single Rosh Hashanah shrouded in a hallelujah
I listen for the holiest knell

What I hear is that you will never, never, never let go
What I fear is that you may never, never, never
Wanna know me for who I really am

Every single birthday teeth sink into a cupcake I’m
Lonely as a grain of loose sand
Every single New Year’s I promise there’ll be no more tears
Oh, but for a dose of dry land

What I hope is that you will someday, someday, someday let go
What I wish is that you will one day, one day, one day
Wanna know me for who I really am
