Birthday Girl - Matt Nathanson

Birthday Girl - Matt Nathanson
Early morning autumn light
Whitewashed walls and children playing
The air is still I smell the bakery
Lying here in last night's clothes
Mexican girls in Sunday dresses
Fill the sidewalks up Guerrero street
Save me I get lost so easy
C'mon and lift the fog my birthday girl
The rains came turned all the hills green
Turned the dirt to flowers birthday girl
My birthday girl
Just because you learn to breathe
Underwater doesn't mean
You ever shake
The fear of being drowned
Between the sparks and junkyard thoughts
The things I stole the things I lost
You could build a city in my head
In my head
Save me I get lost so easy
C'mon and lift the fog my birthday girl
The rains came turned all the hills green
Turned my dirt to flowers birthday girl
I don't know what to do
Once this gets started
I never meant to be so
Broken-hearted
Save me I get lost so easy
Turn my dirt to flowers birthday girl
My birthday girl
Save me I get lost so easy
C'mon and lift the fog my birthday girl
The rains came turned all the hills green
Turned my dirt to flowers birthday girl
I don't know what to do
Once this gets started
I never meant to be so
Broken-hearted
Save me c'mon just save me
Turn my dirt to flowers birthday girl
My birthday girl
