Foil on the Meter
Style: Synthpop

[Verse 1]
Yellow footprints turning into slush
somebody ran here in a rush
foil on the meter catching light
just like you do, shining bright

[Chorus]
Axel, tonight the whole street knows
every candle on for you glows
you make the ordinary hum
happy birthday, glad you've come

[Verse 2]
Cold outside but nobody cares
warmth like this comes in rare pairs
you walk in and change the air
suddenly there's colour there

[Pre-chorus]
Count the years, then let them go
one more reason for the glow
here it comes, so ready or not

[Chorus]
Axel, tonight the whole street knows
every candle on for you glows
you make the ordinary hum
happy birthday, glad you've come

[Bridge]
Whatever mess this year has made
you're the reason it never frayed
raise it up, however small
you're the best part of it all

[Chorus]
Axel, tonight the whole street knows
every candle on for you glows
you make the ordinary hum
happy birthday, glad you've come

[Outro]
Footprints fading, but you remain
gold against the melting rain
