To build a cake

Verse 1

Em D G

I’ll bring flour and plan the recipe

Bring the sugar that’s so sweet

Em D Csus2 D

We’ll make it a day to replay in our minds

Without anyone that can make a say

It’s my birthday and you are special to me

Every tired thought you’re all I see

With allure to make a scheme

Come make it special, special for me

Csus2 Em G D

And so I slip away

Into an hour glass

And fantasy floods every waking beat

I’ll take slice of you any day

With the real part of you, miles away

All I’m thinking it’s my birthday today

til we built this cake, come make my day

And so I slip away

Into an hour glass

And fantasy floods every waking beat

And so let’s pretend

It’s not even happening

And it becomes a smashed disarray

Come make it special, special for me

Let’s build this cake, come make my day
