Yellow Balloons for Brooklyn
Style: Indie folk

[Verse 1]
Squeezed past the till just to find you
One more candle, nothing can hide you
Balloons block the whole narrow aisle
Somehow the shop still feels too small for you

[Chorus]
Brooklyn, the room lights up tonight
Somebody shout it, get the count right
Every balloon we could find or borrow
Brooklyn, we're glad you're here tonight

[Verse 2]
Grabbed the last string at the counter
Paid too much and didn't bother
Yellow rubber squeaking past the door
Worth it just to see your face grow fonder

[Pre-chorus]
Hold the door, let the noise come through
Somebody's already counting to you
We've been waiting all day to say

[Chorus]
Brooklyn, the room lights up tonight
Somebody shout it, get the count right
Every balloon we could find or borrow
Brooklyn, we're glad you're here tonight

[Bridge]
However far you wandered this year
We still knew right where to find you
Every balloon bought just for this
Because you're worth chasing down for

[Chorus]
Brooklyn, the room lights up tonight
Somebody shout it, get the count right
Every balloon we could find or borrow
Brooklyn, we're glad you're here tonight

[Outro]
The aisle's still full of yellow light
Happy birthday, Brooklyn, hold it tight
