Ernest, Light It Up
Style: Acoustic pop

[Verse 1]
Grey sky sitting over everything
Yellow leaves piled where nobody stayed
Then you walk in like the first spring
And the whole cold day gets remade

[Pre-chorus]
I could sit here waiting all year long
On a bench that nobody chose
But today's the day you turned

[Chorus]
Ernest, the day belongs to you
Every leaf here turned to gold
Something in this whole park learnt
Warmth cuts through even when it's cold

[Verse 2]
You could light a room up empty
No one else has ever come close
People feel it once they've met you
You're the one that matters most

[Pre-chorus]
I could sit here waiting all year long
On a bench that nobody chose
But today's the day you turned

[Chorus]
Ernest, the day belongs to you
Every leaf here turned to gold
Something in this whole park learnt
Warmth cuts through even when it's cold

[Bridge]
Sing it loud so Ernest hears
However far away you've gone
However many candles, years
This is still your favourite song

[Chorus]
Ernest, the day belongs to you
Every leaf here turned to gold
Something in this whole park learnt
Warmth cuts through even when it's cold

[Outro]
Let the bench sit gold and gleaming
Happy birthday, Ernest, always
