[Verse 1]
This is why we won't delay
For your birthday
Secrets that we held that day
Will be kept straight

All your friends have gone away
So let's celebrate
You're holding hope open for the one
Making you wait

[Verse 2]
Tell me what you hope to say on your birthday
Secrets that we held that day
Will be kept straight
Everyone will be dismayed
If your promise breaks
But you'll be back again to say
Who you want next

[Chorus]
Lights and music
Are on my mind
Be my baby
One more time

Lights and music
Are on my mind
Be my baby
One more time

[Verse 3]
Fading with the color
You see my face
Cold and crystal you can't hide
As your tears race

I'll be waiting buyin' time
Put your dreams away
You're holding hope open for the one
Making you wait

[Chorus]
Lights and music
Are on my mind
Be my baby
One more time

Lights and music
Are on my mind
Be my baby
One more time
