Flag in the Wind
Style: Reggae sunshine

[Verse 1]
Corner flag is dancing in the breeze
Cones are stacked up neat beside the goal
Something in that muddy field agrees
You're the kind that warms an old cold soul

[Pre-chorus]
Every year you show up strong
Steady as the wind that blows along
We been waiting to sing this song

[Chorus]
Derek, Derek, light the day up bright
Come and feel this love we send your way
Nobody else could hold a room so tight
Derek, we're glad you're here today

[Verse 2]
Boots all muddy, sky still full of grey
Still the flag keeps flying, doesn't care
You're the one who turns a rough old day
Into something we all want to share

[Pre-chorus]
Every year you show up strong
Steady as the wind that blows along
We been waiting to sing this song

[Chorus]
Derek, Derek, light the day up bright
Come and feel this love we send your way
Nobody else could hold a room so tight
Derek, we're glad you're here today

[Bridge]
Sun breaks through the clouds for you
Wind picks up and cheers you on
Whatever this whole year puts you through
We'll be right here till it's gone

[Chorus]
Derek, Derek, light the day up bright
Come and feel this love we send your way
Nobody else could hold a room so tight
Derek, we're glad you're here today

[Outro]
Flag still flying, cones still stacked in line
Happy birthday, Derek, shine and shine
