Jonathan's Birthday

I was a fragile sort-of boy I couldn't make out my own voice Over the music playing I met you in the bathroom stall Your mouth like honey catching all The words I couldn't say At Jonathan's birthday Da da da da da da da da da da Da da da da da da da da da da Da da da da Da da da da da da We took a picture on your phone Your eyes were big I turned to stone And then you walked away I found you hanging with your friends You called me over I pretended that I knew your name The drinks were getting to my head You told me you would never dance alone What could I say We were surrounded by a crowd The air was thick, the voices loud And we began to sway At Jonathan's birthday Da da da da da da da da da da Da da da da da da da da da da Da da da da Da da da da da da And at your house the moon looked red As I was dangling off the edge And night turned into day Your hair was glistening and black You put your head down in my lap I asked, are you okay You said that Johnny was a guy But not just any one You'd liked him since the seventh grade And for a moment I was still I leaned in and got closer till I couldn't see your face On Jonathan's birthday Da da da da da da da da da da Da da da da da da da da da da Da da da da Da da da da da da And one year later it is fall I see you standing in the hall And you still look the same I know our secret's better kept But I still hate it that I let A good thing slip away But in the end I'll be alright 'Cause you were never really mine And I'm the one to blame Then John comes running with his friends He kisses you and I remember It like yesterday It's Jonathan's birthday Da da da da da da da da da da Da da da da da da da da da da Da da da da Da da da da da da It's Jonathan's Da da da da da da da da da da Da da da da da da da da da da Da da da da Da da da da da da
