The Door We Leave Open
Style: Synthpop

[Verse 1]
The old shed door hangs crooked
propped up just to hold the light
you turned this scruffy corner golden
just by showing up tonight

[Pre-chorus]
Every candle's leaning sideways
every year gets harder to hide
but the whole street's here to see it

[Chorus]
Hadley, the room lights up for you
we came because we had to
however far we travelled to
we'd do it again gladly for you

[Verse 2]
Rust along the hinges glowing
cake balanced where the paint's gone thin
you make the broken things feel chosen
you make the whole night feel like kin

[Pre-chorus]
Every candle's leaning sideways
every year gets harder to hide
but the whole street's here to see it

[Chorus]
Hadley, the room lights up for you
we came because we had to
however far we travelled to
we'd do it again gladly for you

[Bridge]
Sing it loud or sing it badly
doesn't matter, we're all in
however old, you're still our Hadley
that's the party we begin

[Chorus]
Hadley, the room lights up for you
we came because we had to
however far we travelled to
we'd do it again gladly for you

[Outro]
Leave the shed door standing open
we'll keep coming back for you
