Muddy Goalposts
Style: Indie folk

[Verse 1]
Twelve of us out on the pitch
Goalposts leaning, shaking loud
Somebody's shouting your name
You're the one who draws the crowd

[Pre-chorus]
Mud on your knees, grin on your face
Nobody plays it like you do
Count down now, we're getting close

[Chorus]
Eva, this whole field's alive for you
Candles catching in the breeze
We're kicking joy across the lines
So happy birthday, if you please

[Verse 2]
White lines fading in the grass
Somebody's cheering from the side
You always find a way to win
Even when you haven't tried

[Pre-chorus]
Cake is waiting by the goal
Nobody sings it quite like we do
Here we go, the count is close

[Chorus]
Eva, this whole field's alive for you
Candles catching in the breeze
We're kicking joy across the lines
So happy birthday, if you please

[Bridge]
Another year has kicked on through
Still the one that we look for
You're the reason we came out today
Cheering loudest at the door

[Chorus]
Eva, this whole field's alive for you
Candles catching in the breeze
We're kicking joy across the lines
So happy birthday, if you please

[Outro]
Goalposts still shaking, light is low
Happy birthday, Eva, off you go
