about
The lyrics were written by Dennis Higgins for the UK Songwriting Competition. In this recording, we used "Charlie" as the birthday celebrant, but his name is a placeholder for whoever else might be having a birthday.
lyrics
Happy birthday [name], today is just for you
Your friends are gathered here so they can share it too
Make the most of it, it's such a special day
Don't waste a minute of it, don't let it slip away
Raise a glass, drink a toast
Spread the word from coast to coast
Raise a glass, drink a toast
Today is [name's] day
Birthdays come once a year and last for just one day
Each one is a giant step along life's great highway
Don't miss this chance to have a little fun
The past is now behind you, your future has begun
Raise a glass, drink a toast
Spread the word from coast to coast
Raise a glass, drink a toast
Today is [name's] day
Here's to the birthday [girl/boy], today is just for you
Your friends are gathered here so they can share it too
Soon it will be gone, it lasts for just one day
Don't waste a minute of it, don't let it slip away
Raise a glass, drink a toast
Spread the word from coast to coast
Raise a glass, drink a toast
Today is [name's] day
Raise a glass, drink a toast
Today is [name's] day
