Birthday Song for the Dead
Light a little light
Today is your birthday
Blow the candles out
Although it hurts me
Baby there’s no doubt
The dream is over
If i can make it out
Maybe you’ll appear
Your birthday time is here
Come little dove
Today we remember
How the sky above
Is bright in December
Baby there’s no doubt
I hear your heartbeat
Blow the candles out
Your birthday child is here
Come little love
Today is your birthday
I will cut the cake
Recеive this offering
Maybe if you hеard
Us singing softly
Summoning your soul
If you would send a sign
Maybe we’d be fine
I have learned to love
The memory of you
Is that you above?
Your wings beat softly
I can make them out
Two eyes there glowing
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
Although it makes me cry
To see you in the sky
I love you
You’re all, my little darling
I’m making tea for two
I hope you’ve weathered the storm
Maybe you’re reborn
Maybe you’re at home
If you would send a sign
Baby, we’d be fine
