Thanks, b.w. for mentioning my song! It's on my CD "Ever Brightening Day" and it's in kind of a swingy bluesy style:
Let's Throw a Party For Ourselves
By Eve Goldberg
Every year or so, no matter where you go You know that day will arrive That very special morn, the day that you were born Ain't it good to be alive
CHO:
So darlin', sing and shout Blow the candles out Let's throw a party for ourselves
Well you can fuss and you can fret, you can try to forget You can let it get into your head But it's really not so bad, in fact you should be glad If you weren't getting older, you'd be dead
(Cho)
So I hope you have some fun, on this trip around the sun And whatever may be your fate Your friends will stick by you, with a love so deep and true And that's a thing to celebrate
