Happy Birthday to Me Hank Locklin

[Verse 1]
Today has been my birthday and tonight I should be glad
But you weren't here to share it and inside I hurt so bad
I didn't want your presents, just your kiss and company
And your lips to softly whisper "Happy birthday" to me

[Chorus]
But I came home all by myself and lit the candle
Made a wish for you and love that used to be
I unwrapped the tiny package that I bought myself
Then I sang "Happy Birthday" to me

[Verse 2]
I thought for sure you'd send me at least a birthday card
But the postman didn't even stop when he passed by my yard
You could have telephoned and eased a lot of misery
Instead I called myself and said "Happy birthday" to me

[Chorus]
Then I came home all by myself and lit the candle
Made a wish for you and love that used to be
I unwrapped the tiny package that I bought myself
Then I sang "Happy Birthday" to me
