The Lumineers - BIRTHDAY

I didn't know I was the only thing you saw
Your eyes were blue
I don't know why I couldn't love myself
But you needed proof

You and me will always be the ones to hang around
I can see the loneliness you keep out of sight

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
It's your birthday, dear
It's alright, it's alright, and we're carrying on
And you know, and you know, and you know
It's your birthday, oh
Every word, every word
And we're singing along

Over and over
I can only scream so loud, but you ignored me
You picked it up, you picked it all apart
And, now, there's nothing for me

We gather 'round
Your house burned down
As you held a garden hose
You and me, will always be the ones to hang around

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
It's your birthday, dear (it's alright)
It's alright, it's okay, and we're carrying on
And you know, and you know, and you know
It's your birthday (it's alright))
Every word, every word
And we're singing along

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
It's your birthday, dear
It's alright, it's okay, And we're singing along

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
It's your birthday, dear (it's alright)
It's alright, it's okay, and we're carrying on (it's alright)
And you know, and you know, and you know
It's your birthday (it's alright)
Every word, every word
And we're singing along

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
It's your birthday, dear (it's alright)
It's alright, it's okay, and we're carrying on (it's alright)
And you know, and you know, and you know
It's your birthday (it's alright)
Every word, every word
And we're singing along

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
It's your birthday, dear (it's alright)
It's alright, it's okay, and we're carrying on (it's alright)
And you know, and you know, and you know
It's your birthday
