Ex-girlfriend's Birthday Letra

it's my ex-girlfriend's birthday today. and if we were still together it would be okay. she's out celebrating while i'm at home. cause today's the day that my ex-girlfriend was born. she'll be blowing out the candles like she blew out our relationship. and with her new boyfriend beside her, she'll close her eyes and make a wish. oh tonight i could be with her if only time could be reversed. cause i was at her eighteenth and i was at her twenty-first. do the presents that i bought her have any meaning anymore? and does she ever think about me, or wonder what she left me for? have her parents met her boyfriend and did they like him more than me? what about her independence? i thought she wanted to be free
