Boxes on the Bench
Style: Piano pop

[Verse 1]
Somebody piled the bench up high
Boxes stacked against the sky
Nobody's opened one yet
We're all just waiting for you to arrive

[Pre-chorus]
Every box is holding its breath
Every ribbon wants to be undone
So come and claim what's yours

[Chorus]
Brenda, this whole day is yours
Open every one of the doors
You make the ordinary into splendour
Nobody fills a room like Brenda

[Verse 2]
Cardboard towers lean and sway
We built them up to mark the day
You're the reason we all showed up
Standing here with nothing to say

[Chorus]
Brenda, this whole day is yours
Open every one of the doors
You make the ordinary into splendour
Nobody fills a room like Brenda

[Bridge]
Some folk you just remember
Long after the boxes are gone
We'll still be talking about tonight
Come September, we'll carry it on

[Chorus]
Brenda, this whole day is yours
Open every one of the doors
You make the ordinary into splendour
Nobody fills a room like Brenda

[Outro]
The bench will empty, the boxes clear
But you're the gift we gathered here
