Alison (Light It Up)
Style: Motown soul

[Verse 1]
Found an old box in the garage
Dust on the tape, dim and undone
Behind the drums, forgotten treasure
But nothing's forgotten when it's you, Alison

[Chorus]
Alison, Alison, light of the room
Every year you outshine the sun
Something in you chases off the gloom
We're all so glad your life's begun

[Verse 2]
You turn a dim room into daylight
Just by walking through with your grin
Every corner brighter when you're near it
Every quiet party comes alive when you step in

[Pre-chorus]
So let the candles catch and rise
Let every voice here join as one
We've waited all year for this night

[Chorus]
Alison, Alison, light of the room
Every year you outshine the sun
Something in you chases off the gloom
We're all so glad your life's begun

[Bridge]
Stacked up boxes, years gone by
Every one of them holds you close
We'd keep them all just to say thank you
For being the one we love the most

[Chorus]
Alison, Alison, light of the room
Every year you outshine the sun
Something in you chases off the gloom
We're all so glad your life's begun

[Outro]
Somewhere there's a box still waiting
Full of years as good as this one
