Replacements - Birthday Gal lyrics

Here am I

Who while away the mornings

Since you've gone

Too long have I lay alone

Not knowing which way to turn.

And there you are

Quite sure that you were right

Knowing full well

That I'd be the first one

To go down.

And you'd be the one who was laughing

Except when things weren't going your way

And then the lady would say that she'd had enough

Wandering around on her own.

The day you left

Well I think you knew you'd not be back

Well at least it would seem that way

Because you never said goodbye.

But when it comes round to you and me

I'm sure it will work out alright.

And you'd be the one who was laughing

And giving me something I don't need

And you know, I'd always hold you and keep you warm

Oh! more fool me.

Ah, but when it comes

Round to you and me

I ask myself

Do I really believe

In your love.

Yes, I'm sure it will work out alright.
