Birthday Cake

I wanna be a famous singer

Would you be my band?

Travel the world together

You can hold my hand

Crossing cracks from the airplane

To the terminal gate

Hope we're meant for each other

Hope that love is our fate

Life feels like a whirlwind

Been watching paint dry

Can't steady the current

No matter how hard I try

We could all use an anchor

You're not afraid of the sea

Let's both dive in together

Put your hooks in me

Boy, you really got me after birthday cake

Making out on my friend's new couch

So call me any night, any day of the week

I wanna learn what you're all about

And I know I'm far away, but this is just the start

And if we make it past, the first little part

We could fly around the world in the very same plane

We could share a life, share a name

I wanna live in New York City

When I'm old and gray

You say you're going to come visit me

See a Broadway play

Snow has just started falling

I hope you'll come around soon

My apartment is tiny

But I think there's enough room for you

Yeah, boy, you really got me after birthday cake

Making love on my friend's spare bed

And I can't seem to shake walking Echo Park Lake

Or get your face out of my head

And I know I'm far away, but this is just the start

And if we make it past, the first little part

We could fly around the world in the very same plane

We could share a life, share a name

Am I saying too much way too soon?

Well, my only confidant is this empty room

And my only response is the echo in my voice

When I'm falling in love, it's like I have no choice

From my heart to my throat, to my lips, to the air

I don't wish for much, but I wish you were here

We need to check this out, oh, check me in

I'm not into playing games but I do fight to win

And, boy, you really got me after birthday cake

Making love on my friend's spare bed

And I can't seem to shake walking Echo Park Lake

Or get your face out of my head

And I know I'm far away, but this is just the start

And if we make it past, the first little part

We could fly around the world in the very same plane

We could share a life, share a name
