13 candles decorated my cake Even though a day early They were a sense of relief Because they meant I would be back in time To get the only present I could ever want For my first birthday with you All I wanted was to see your face Even if you couldn't see me too I had something to give you Even if it seemed a little off. I had spent all my time Thinking planning Waiting for the day Those 13 candles were 13 wishes I sent upon the wind that day "I wish to see my love, In person, not in my mind" They told me to give up That i would seem him the next day But don't look now Here I am crying away. A mere 13 candles can't trun back time Give me a thousand Then I'll try.Birth sign: Cancer
