Though to many a birthday song is just the norm and common HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, but when I first heard this song I teared...It's a completely different type of brithday song that one will sing on her birthday...

I've heard many versions of birthday songs, from the traditional ones to the ones that Simpsons played, nothing touches me as much as this...One of the greatest thing that happened was that my great friend played that for me on my way to work, the morning of my birthday....

3 simple stanzas yet the blessings shone and memories surfaced...such blessings, such joys, such friendship...

Corrinne May
The Birthday Song

Don't worry about that extra line
That's creeping up upon your face
It's just a part of nature's way to say you've grown a little more
Trees have rings and thicker branches
Kids shoes get a little tighter
Every year we're getting closer to who we're gonna be
It's time to celebrate the story of how you've come to be

Happy Birthday, my friend
Here's to all the years we've shared together
All the fun we've had
You're such a blessing
Such a joy in my life
May the good Lord bless you
And may all your dreams come true

So light a candle on your cake
For every smile you've helped create
For every heart and every soul
You've helped to grow a little more
A few more pounds, a little more grey
Don't count the years, just count the way
It takes a little time to go from water into wine
Dont ever lose the wonder of that child within your eyes

Happy Birthday, my friend
Here's to all the years we've share together
All the fun we've had
You're such a blessing
Such a joy in my life
May the good Lord bless you
And may all your dreams come true
