Your Birthday

It's your birthday and I remembered it
Every year I wish that I could forget
I don't even think about you anymore
Until the calendar comes back to November 4th

Every time I meet a new man it's dangerous
Especially if he's a Sagittarius
This time of the year got me wound up
'Cause just like we were it's on the cusp
I forget about you in Summer and Spring
Then the leaves change and I remember everything
I always hope that one day will pass me by, but
Every time it pops into my mind
I go (oh no)
And I don't want to talk but I want to (let you know)

It's your birthday and I remembered it
Every year I wish that I could forget
I don't even think about you anymore
Until the calendar comes back to November 4th
On your birthday, I think I started shit
In my new relationship 'cause you affected it
I don't even think about you anymore
But when I see that date it brings me back to before
When your birthday meant more

If I meet a new man, I'll still know
That your birthday comes right around the time it gets cold
Wish it could fly by without me noticing
But I guess you're too deep in my history
Now it's not just a day on the calendar
I won't forget but I'll try again next year
I know pretty soon it'll be year ten
And I expect it'll happen again and again
And it shows (oh no)
That I might never truly (let go)

It's your birthday and I remembered it
Every year I wish that I could forget
I don't even think about you anymore
Until the calendar comes back to November 4th
On your birthday, I think I started shit
In my new relationship 'cause you affected it
I don't even think about you anymore
But when I see that date it brings me back to before
When your birthday meant more

And I swear I never think about you
So why's this date in my roots?
Will I ever know
How you got through me right to my bones?
Can a single year pass by
When I'm not reminded of the only ghost in my life?
How many songs do I have to write
Before you're out of my mind?

November (comes and goes)
Why does it always have me (in a chokehold)

It's your birthday and I remembered it
Every year I wish that I could forget
I don't even think about you anymore
Until the calendar comes back to November 4th
On your birthday, I think I started shit
In my new relationship 'cause you affected it
I don't even think about you anymore
But when I see that date it brings me back to before
When your birthday meant more

You're stuck in my head like a song I used to sing
I remember you so easily

And I go (oh no)
And I don't want to talk but I want to (let you know)
And it shows (oh no)
That I might never truly (let go)
November (comes and goes)
Why does it always have me (in a chokehold)

Pretty soon, it'll be year ten
And I expect it'll happen again and again
