Doris, Light the Candles
Style: Acoustic pop

[Verse 1]
Foil crinkling on the tiny table
Small space, but you make it able
Every year we squeeze in tight
Just to watch you laugh tonight

[Chorus]
Doris, the whole room adores this
Candle smoke and one more chorus
Nobody else could light a room
Like you do, cutting through the gloom

[Verse 2]
Kettle's on, the rain comes down
Somehow you still own this town
Paper hats and crooked chairs
None of it compares to yours

[Pre-chorus]
Someone's shouting, make a wish
Someone's holding out a dish
And every voice here wants to say

[Chorus]
Doris, the whole room adores this
Candle smoke and one more chorus
Nobody else could light a room
Like you do, cutting through the gloom

[Bridge]
Here's to you and all you give
Here's to every year you live
Loud, and warm, and truly seen

[Chorus]
Doris, the whole room adores this
Candle smoke and one more chorus
Nobody else could light a room
Like you do, cutting through the gloom

[Outro]
Fold the foil, keep it near
Same small table, one more year
