[Verse 1] The last guest's gone, the music's faded, Shadows dance upon the wall. Another year, another ache, No one here to break my fall. [Pre-Chorus] My birthday wishes whispered low, But the loudest sound is empty space. I hold my breath beside the cake, And miss the warmth of another face. [Chorus] Longing for a gentle touch, A warm embrace, a loving face. The confetti's swept, the presents opened, But the greatest gift is still unknown. [Verse 2] The ribbon curls beside the doorway, Paper gathers by the chair. Every candle gave its answer: Smoke rising through the empty air. [Bridge] Just a silent, hollow echo, On a birthday spent alone. I leave one plate beside the table, For a kindness I have never known. [Final Chorus] When the party's over, I'm completely alone. When the party's over, I'm completely alone. Alone, alone, aloneeeeeeee. [Outro] The last guest's gone, The room stays still. Another year, Another ache.
