Faith Holt - Birthday Card Lyrics

I remember the first time I saw you
But now I can't look right at you
We're in the same room but we act like we're strangers now

I wish that I could walk right to you
Hug you and say that I miss you
But I know that I can't 'cause the we that we were's not around

So I'll put a card in your mailbox for your birthday
And sign it like everything is okay
But we both know it's not
Don't you act like you forgot

I'm sorry that I let it get like
The way that it's been for quite a while
Somehow fighting for you became fighting you instead

But even after all the the things that I can't take back
And all the things we said that we regret
If I could go back I'd still choose you again

So I'll put a card in your mailbox for your birthday
And sign it like everything is okay
But we both know it's not
Don't you act like you forgot

That drive home from Kentucky, your head on my shoulder
If only for a second, and that kiss you probably don't remember
Last year on your birthday outside on the sidewalk
When you lost your wallet and I started falling
That night at the airport, I still wish you'd wear your seat belt
I'd do anything just to hear you say we're okay

So I'll put a card in your mailbox for your birthday
And sign it like everything is okay
But we both know it's not
Don't you act like you forgot
Last year on the corner of 8th and Broadway
You were upset and I kept saying
It's all gonna be alright
Turns out we're not alright
I said we'd be alright
Just say that we're alright
