[Intro]
One, two
One, two, three, four
One, two
One, two, three, four
[Verse 1]
I was born on a Friday back in 1976
To a singer and a teacher
Who at the time were a perfect fit
They gave me what I needed
To go out on the road
And their song still rings like an echo
[Verse 2]
I was born on a Saturday back in 1992
I had barely even kissed a guy
Until the summer that I met you
When you played me Leonard Cohen
On a Southside bedroom floor
It was then I knew what the dark was for
[Chorus 1]
Gonna stay here forever
Like the strum on your first guitar
Time gave me steady means
[?] gave me all these pretty scars
[Verse 3]
I was born on a Wednesday back in 1999
Your heart stopped beating
Right before you weren't alive
A part of me lies with you
In your opiate embrace
I was changed ever since that day
[Chorus 2]
I'll stay here forever
Like the gleam on a silver star
Time, like an [??]
[?] gives me all these pretty scars
[Verse 4]
They were born on the first of May, once and twice again
The tears were streaming
My head in my husband's hands
I thought I knew of love
The kind that knocked you off your feet
But man, I didn't know anything
