Many Happy Returns Songtext
When I accepted this job
I was resigned to my place
When I got there early
She hesitated
You can say she′s gone forever
Or just sit tight and wait
She said I was unpredictable
And that I was not the first
Like the phoenix coming back from the ashes
I know what's good but I know what trashes
In the headlights, in the highlights of her hair
Hit the headlines but she′s not there
Many happy returns, many happy returns
These are the lessons I could have learned
Return, many happy returns
These are the letters I should have burned
Okay, I'm sad not blue
Okay, remember
All that matters to me now
Is the message I send you
Like the world spinning round on its axis
I know democracy but I know what's fascist
When she′s gone all I′ve got to learn
Is the law of diminishing return
When she's here one thing I′ve found
Things get better second time around
Return, many happy returns
These are the lessons I could have learned
Return, many happy returns
These are the letters I should have burned
Okay, I'm sad not blue
Okay, remember
All that matters to me now
Is the message I send you
Like the world spinning round on its axis
I know what′s small but I know what's massive
When she′s gone all I've got to learn
Is the law of diminishing return
When she's here one thing I′ve found
Things get better second time around
Return, many happy returns
These are the lessons I could have learned
Return, many happy returns
These are the letters I should have burned
Return, many happy returns
These are the lessons I could have learned
Return, many happy returns
These are the letters I should have burned
Return, many happy returns
These are the lessons I could have learned
Return, many happy returns
These are the letters I should have burned
Return, many happy returns
These are the lessons I could have learned
Return, many happy returns
These are the letters I should have burned
Return, many happy returns
These are the lessons I could have learned
Return, many happy returns
These are the letters I should have burned
I was resigned to my place
When I got there early
She hesitated
You can say she′s gone forever
Or just sit tight and wait
She said I was unpredictable
And that I was not the first
Like the phoenix coming back from the ashes
I know what's good but I know what trashes
In the headlights, in the highlights of her hair
Hit the headlines but she′s not there
Many happy returns, many happy returns
These are the lessons I could have learned
Return, many happy returns
These are the letters I should have burned
Okay, I'm sad not blue
Okay, remember
All that matters to me now
Is the message I send you
Like the world spinning round on its axis
I know democracy but I know what's fascist
When she′s gone all I′ve got to learn
Is the law of diminishing return
When she's here one thing I′ve found
Things get better second time around
Return, many happy returns
These are the lessons I could have learned
Return, many happy returns
These are the letters I should have burned
Okay, I'm sad not blue
Okay, remember
All that matters to me now
Is the message I send you
Like the world spinning round on its axis
I know what′s small but I know what's massive
When she′s gone all I've got to learn
Is the law of diminishing return
When she's here one thing I′ve found
Things get better second time around
Return, many happy returns
These are the lessons I could have learned
Return, many happy returns
These are the letters I should have burned
Return, many happy returns
These are the lessons I could have learned
Return, many happy returns
These are the letters I should have burned
Return, many happy returns
These are the lessons I could have learned
Return, many happy returns
These are the letters I should have burned
Return, many happy returns
These are the lessons I could have learned
Return, many happy returns
These are the letters I should have burned
Return, many happy returns
These are the lessons I could have learned
Return, many happy returns
These are the letters I should have burned
