Many dread the day they add a candle to the cake,
But that's not me, I have quite a different take.
Why fear another year?
A chance to shed new tears.
Maybe have one less beer,
And shift into a new gear...
You become a year wiser;
Learn from your mistakes.
But don't you dare regret a thing...
It made you who you are today.
Another year to spend with those for which you greatly care.
Another chance to treat everyone equal and fair.
Opportunity to ease the pain that others bear...
And yes, love someone with all your heart, if you're up to the dare....
Many dread the day they add a candle to the cake.
But that's definitely not me, I have quite a different take.
