Beryl, Light the Water
Style: Brass band

[Verse 1]
Cups go drifting on the water
slow and easy, catching sun
everybody here around you
glad the party's just begun

[Pre-chorus]
Something in the way you laugh
turns the whole room warm and gold
we've been waiting all year long

[Chorus]
Beryl, raise your cup up high
let the whole room hear it swell
nobody fills a room like Beryl
we're glad to know you, glad to tell

[Verse 2]
Every cup out on that water
carries something meant for you
all the noise and all the toasting
only says what's always true

[Chorus]
Beryl, raise your cup up high
let the whole room hear it swell
nobody fills a room like Beryl
we're glad to know you, glad to tell

[Bridge]
However far this year has carried
however long the road ahead
you're the one we're all here toasting
the one worth all the words we've said

[Chorus]
Beryl, raise your cup up high
let the whole room hear it swell
nobody fills a room like Beryl
we're glad to know you, glad to tell

[Outro]
Let the cups drift on the water
Beryl, this whole day is yours
