This song is for my little Scomberella on her birthday.
Thanks Spin for such a brilliant CCO track, seems appropriate for me to to take a gift to the world and rework it as a distant gift to my daughter.
Getting some strange looks singing into my iPhone at the airport; wish I was in the studio, very hard to record through a crappy onboard mike and equally difficult to mix down on earbuds. Its the thought that counts I guess!
Happy birthday to my beautiful daughter.

Here’s the lyrics;

I spent half the night
at the hospital site
just awaiting for you to begin.

An angel from heaven
that’s just turning seven,
a flower in your hair
and a cheeky sweet grin.

And all I can do
is to stand next to you
with a smile on my face,
birthday cake on your chin;

It’s hard to believe
as you dress like a queen
that I love you so much
don’t now how to begin.

I sway and I falter
you constantly alter;
a flower in my springtime,
my air and my water.

You’re smile is a changing,
a rose rearranging,
I’m proud of my girl
you’re the light of my life

Cast those yellow birthday cards away
To take the time
release sublime
from my heart
I say..

and keep that fire
the earth has lit for you today…
and think of me
just once,
or twice,
a day…

Happy Birthday
keep that fire
the earth has lit for you today..
on your birthday

Cast those yellow birthday cards away
To take the time
release sublime
from my heart
I say..

and keep that fire
the earth has lit for you today…
and think of me
just once,
or twice,
a day…
Oh happy birthday darling
at least on your birthday
once or twice a day
on your birthday..

Happy Birthday beautiful
