[Verse 1]
You hate that winter feels so long
But I love this cold for one sweet reason
February always brings you back
Wrapped in blankets
Laughing in my kitchen
You say you're scared I'll change someday
That I'll wake and see you different
But you're the glow in my gray days
You're the home in every distance
[Chorus]
Heaven
It's your birthday
But you're the gift I get each day
From February 15 till every year ends
I'll still reach for your hand again
Heaven
When you doubt it
Let my arms be how you count it
If you ever question what my heart's been doing
It's beating
Beating
Beating for you
[Verse 2]
We burned the toast this morning (hey)
You rolled your eyes
I kissed your shoulder
Said
"What if someday all this fades?
What if love goes quiet when we're older?"
I kept your face between my hands
So you'd hear every word I'm saying
"I'll be the joke that makes you smile
The faith that holds when you start shaking"
[Chorus]
Heaven
It's your birthday
But you're the gift I get each day
From February 15 till every year ends
I'll still reach for your hand again
Heaven
When you doubt it
Let my arms be how you count it
If you ever question what my heart's been doing
It's beating
Beating
Beating for you
[Bridge]
Mark the date in every phone
Write it on my skin in pen
But more than any calendar
I choose you again and again
When the candles melt to nothing
And the flowers all turn dry
You'll still be my favorite miracle
The "you and me" in every "why"
[Chorus]
Heaven
It's your birthday
But you're the gift I get each day
From February 15 till every year ends
I'll still reach for your hand again
Heaven
Don't forget it
If love's a bet
I'm in
I meant it
If you ever question what my heart's been doing
It's beating
Beating
Beating for you
(Just for you)
