"Birthday Song: This Time Has Gone" lyrics - THE MOUNTAIN GOATS

The sun came out this morning, I was wide awake
I stumbled on down to the kitchen and I cut myself a piece of my birthday cake
With raspberry filling in the middle
I thought about you a little

[Refrain:]
And there was a time when you wanted me so bad
It was eating you up inside
But this time has gone away

I poured myself a tall glass of milk, it was deep and cold
And I checked my driver's license, I was 28 years old

[Refrain:]
And there was a time when you wanted me so bad
It was eating you up inside
But this time has gone away
