Frances, Light the Door
Style: Ceilidh jig

[Verse 1]
Fog on the glass by the door
Coats on the pegs, boots on the floor
Someone comes home, the whole house cheers
Frances arrives, and away go the years

[Pre-chorus]
We heard the gate, we heard your song
We've had this candle burning long
Come in from the cold, where you belong

[Chorus]
Frances, Frances, give us your hand
Nobody dances quite like you can
Frances, Frances, look at these chances
Life gave us you, and we know our romances

[Verse 2]
Every year the same warm light
Every year you make it right
Steam on the window, laughter inside
There's no closed door you can't open wide

[Pre-chorus]
We heard the gate, we heard your song
We've had this candle burning long
Come in from the cold, where you belong

[Chorus]
Frances, Frances, give us your hand
Nobody dances quite like you can
Frances, Frances, look at these chances
Life gave us you, and we know our romances

[Bridge]
Raise your glass and stamp your feet
Nobody here can keep the beat
Like the one who walked through that door
And made this house what it's for

[Chorus]
Frances, Frances, give us your hand
Nobody dances quite like you can
Frances, Frances, look at these chances
Life gave us you, and we know our romances

[Outro]
The glass has cleared, the coats hang still
We're glad you're home, and always will
