Today is my birthday, and there's just one thing I'm wishing for To spend some time alone with a certain someone I adore It doesn't have to be formal or fancy It's not a deal breaker if it's not romance-y After all of this time I've lowered my expectations Don't need a limo or a corsage Just him and me without the entourage And I won't be upset If it's emotional roulette I'll take any little thing that I can get Like eatin' some french fries, I'll take it Stuck on a tarmac, I'm good Trapped on the rubble, that's awesome Movin' the piano if we only could Get annoyed, but don't ya? Sign me up In a smelly subway car I'm in It could be three apples Stirring a lobster I'd go down with wind If that's all I really want Just time alone with my trilingual essence, boy I'm not asking for the world, I'm just a simple girl And I would change my mournful tone If we could just be alone Just be alone Just be alone Just be alone Just be alone
