Emily Kinney – Birthday Cake lyrics
[Verse 1]
I wanna be a famous singer
Would you be my band
Travel the world together
You can hold my hand
Crossin' cracks from the airplane
To the terminal gate
Hope we're meant for each other
Hope that love is our fate
Life feels like a whirlwind
Been watching paint dry
Can't steady the current
No matter how hard I try
We could all use an anchor
You're not afraid of the sea
Let's both dive in together
Put your hooks in me
[Chorus]
And, boy, you really got me after birthday cake
Makin' out on my friend's new couch
So call me any night, any day of the week
I wanna learn what you're all about
And I know I'm far away but this is just the start
And if we make it past the first little part
We could fly around the world in the very same plane
We could share a life, share a name
[Verse 2]
I wanna live in New York City
When I'm old and grey
You say you're gonna come visit me
See a Broadway play
Snow has just started fallin'
Hope you'll come around soon
My apartment is tiny
But I think there's enough room for you
[Chorus]
Yeah, boy, you really got me after birthday cake
Makin' out on my friend's spare bed
And I can't seem to shake
Walking Echo Park Lane
Or get your face outta my head
And I know I'm far away but this is just the start
And if we make it past the first little part
We could fly around the world in the very same plane
We could share a life, share a name
[Bridge]
Am I saying too much
Way too soon
Well, my only confidant is this empty room
And my only response is the echo of my voice
When I'm fallin' in love it's like I have no choice
From my heart, to my throat, to my lips, to the air
I don't wish for much
But I wish you were here
We need to sheck this out
Oh, check me in
I'm not into playing games but I do fight to win
[Chorus]
And, boy, you really got me after birthday cake
Makin' out on my friend's spare bed
And I can't seem to shake
Walking Echo Park Lane
Or get your face outta my head
And I know I'm far away but this is just the start
And if we make it past the first little part
We could fly around the world in the very same plane
We could share a life, share a name
I wanna be a famous singer
Would you be my band
Travel the world together
You can hold my hand
Crossin' cracks from the airplane
To the terminal gate
Hope we're meant for each other
Hope that love is our fate
Life feels like a whirlwind
Been watching paint dry
Can't steady the current
No matter how hard I try
We could all use an anchor
You're not afraid of the sea
Let's both dive in together
Put your hooks in me
[Chorus]
And, boy, you really got me after birthday cake
Makin' out on my friend's new couch
So call me any night, any day of the week
I wanna learn what you're all about
And I know I'm far away but this is just the start
And if we make it past the first little part
