I whisper love words in his ear under the sheets Asking for a kiss, a kiss before he leaves He's walking away, away with his back to me Listen I have to remind him again that it's anniversary I let the day go by I don't know what I hear Celebrating the year Shouldn't be a reason to cry I do not know why, why I hang around I seem not to exist in the day what do I stand on solid ground But when we're alone and the sun finally goes down Hey pull me in so I can hear your heart beat Wide along awake it sounds I let the day go by I keep my smile on tight Well it's our day and that is why It shouldn't be a reason to cry Oh what a perfect day Why do I want to stray Well this is how we fade Our love has gone without a trace He's walking away, away with his back to me Listen I have to remind him again that it's anniversary It's been another year I don't know what I hear Celebrating the year Just like the words I want to hear Oh what a perfect day Why do I want to stray Well this is how we fade Our love has gone without a trace Anniversary
