Amanda, Light the Candles
Style: Ceilidh jig

[Verse 1]
Out behind the shed today
boxes stacked up high
found an old thing packed away
and thought of you and why

[Pre-chorus]
Because you keep the good stuff safe
you never throw out joy
so let the fiddle start to play

[Chorus]
Amanda, grab a glass and stand
we're calling out your name
the whole room is your own veranda
tonight you're not the same

[Verse 2]
The mower's rusting by the wall
forgotten half the year
but you, you're not forgotten, no
you're why we're gathered here

[Pre-chorus]
Because you keep the good stuff safe
you never throw out joy
so let the fiddle start to play

[Chorus]
Amanda, grab a glass and stand
we're calling out your name
the whole room is your own veranda
tonight you're not the same

[Bridge]
Clap your hands and stamp the floor
give her one more cheer
nobody loved like you before
we're glad you're standing here

[Chorus]
Amanda, grab a glass and stand
we're calling out your name
the whole room is your own veranda
tonight you're not the same

[Outro]
We'll leave the shed and boxes be
just come and dance with we
