about

for a friend who isn't here anymore.

lyrics

Here's another little Sunrise for you
You made it 27 years and the sky is still blue
Did you think you'd get something that you couldn't use?
Another tie, another sock, another poster of some joker that can't lose

Did you want another Star Wars toy?
Did you want another G.I. Joe?
How about a big birthday cake?
And a pile of presents to tear through

Every year that goes by, it gets better because of you
Every day that goes by, I laugh at something new
Did you think that we wouldn't remember you
Give and take, to celebrate another day with you

Do you remember when you were five?
Did you think you'd hit twenty-two?
So many crazy things we did
And here we stand and we're looking so confused

Here's another little Moonrise for you
The day is done, another year starts anew
It's your birthday, Shawn, a party to ensue

Cut your hair, brush your teeth, put on your dancing shoes
Did you thank your mom and your sister too?
Who do you think came up with this party ruse?

Did you think we'd ever stay so young?
Another number to add, another life begun.

Happy birthday Shawn, the party's never done
Happy birthday Shawn, from every everyone
