It's mothers birthday

She's forty years

I don't know what to say

Buy her roses and cry her tears

She'll just give them away



Maybe I'll fight it

Maybe I'll fight it



[Chorus:]



Why'd I have to grow up so fast?

I just wanna stay here and laugh

Oh we only

Oh we only bloom away



You were wearing my favourite dress

When you left that day

My pillow covers your photograph

You come to me in ways



Maybe I'll find her

Maybe I'll find her



[Chorus]



I don't wanna be the one who has to be afraid

I don't wanna be the one you feel you sorry for

I just wanna be the one to make you smile

And kiss your face



It's mothers birthday

She's forty years

I don't know what to say



[Chorus x2]
