The ghost of a memory
The blink of an eye
The throat of a dyin' sky
Swallows up the smoke that feeds the darkness
I was a good boy then
And you were howlin' round the bonfire
Tell them all I'm leavin'
Sick to death of grievin'
Happy birthday
All my time is borrowed
I'll give it back tomorrow
Happy birthday song
I woke on a winters day
Sideshow daddy
We climbed to the rat skull cave
A thunder egg was made to hide the lightnin'
I was a sweet boy then
Just a rabbit in the wood pile
Tell them all I'm leavin'
Sick to death of sleepin'
Happy birthday song
All my time is borrowed
I'll give it back tomorrow
Happy birthday song
I dreamed of the Moses tree
Again last night
And the owl of the black ravine
And the little blue snakes that race to chase the sunbeams
I was a quick boy then
And you could never ever catch me
Tell them all I'm leavin'
Sick to death of breathin'
Happy birthday song
All my time is borrowed
I'll give it back tomorrow
Happy birthday song
