Birthday (Pride)

I wish they could all be like that first day
When I met Yvonne
She kissed me and said, "Did you know it's your birthday?"
And told me I'd make a wonderful blonde
I'd make a wonderful blonde

I need to be broken in gently
I need to be found
Oh please won't you let me down gently
On the warm and painted ground
On the warm, painted ground

I'm a tough nut to crack for sure
Seventeen, beautiful and insecure
I have been drifting, would you pull me to shore?
Oh, it's nothing another drink won't cure

Bobbing and weaving down on Davie
While all the church bells sound
Sunday and all the flags are waving
Patterns on the painted ground
On the warm painted ground

Remember how I used to dream of love
Now I've become the dream
Basking in the golden glory of
Beautiful and seventeen
Beautiful and seventeen

Sweetheart won't you take me in?
Take me home and tell me how I should begin
Write your imprint on my skin, and I'll
Tell you I've had a wonderful birthday
Wish everyday could be my birthday
I have had the most wonderful birthday
I've had a wonderful day
