Copper for Gloria
Style: Indie folk

[Verse 1]
A copper coin, a green machine
Outside the shop where we'd convene
You'd feed it in and hold your breath
Waiting for whatever came next

[Chorus]
Gloria, you light the street up
Every candle, every cup
Nobody fills a room like you do
There's only one, and that's the truth

[Verse 2]
You always shared whatever came
The plastic charm without a name
You'd press it in my open hand
Like it was gold, like it was grand

[Pre-chorus]
So let the whole town raise a glass
Let every ordinary thing turn to gold as it passes
Because tonight is yours at last

[Chorus]
Gloria, you light the street up
Every candle, every cup
Nobody fills a room like you do
There's only one, and that's the truth

[Bridge]
We didn't need the prize inside
Just you, laughing, eyes open wide
That corner shop, that green machine
Turned into somewhere golden

[Chorus]
Gloria, you light the street up
Every candle, every cup
Nobody fills a room like you do
There's only one, and that's the truth

[Outro]
Somewhere a green machine still turns
Still holding all the joy it earns
