30th Birthday

You left a voicemail
On my 26th birthday, I was having a breakdown
And you said congratulations
Welcome to adulthood
It all will be okay
Left a card and flowers
On my doorstep the next day

On my 30th birthday
I'll be thinking about my life
I'll be thinking about the things I haven't done
On my 30th birthday
I'll be writing you a song
Something simple but it's sweet and I'll get the chords all wrong
On my 30th birthday
You will still be gone

Always remember
Singing songs on your piano, belting out the words to Bell
Harmonizing my soprano
I assumed the melody would always carry on
Laughing at our livelihoods
We make things up and people go along

But on my 30th birthday
I'll be thinking about my life
I'll be thinking about the things I haven't done
On my 30th birthday
I'll be writing you a song
Something simple but it's sweet and I'll get the chords all wrong
On my 30th birthday
You will still be gone

You left a voicemail
And I still go back and listen when I miss the way you laugh
But I'm strong enough to hear it
It's proof that you existed
A piece of frozen time
Maybe in another universe
We never have to say goodbye

But on my 30th birthday
I'll be thinking about my life
I'll be thinking about the things I haven't done
On my 30th birthday
I'll be writing you a song
Something simple but it's sweet and I'll get the chords all wrong
On my 30th birthday
You will still be gone
