Tied With Red Twine
Style: Funk strut

[Verse 1]
Cardboard box up on the glass shelf
Red string knotted, saved for yourself
Everybody walking past can tell
There's something inside that box that will excel

[Chorus]
Isabel, you're the treat we save
Isabel, worth the fuss we made
Cut the string, let the good times swell
Happy birthday, our Isabel

[Verse 2]
Bakery humming, closing up soon
But they held one back just for you
Wrapped it careful, rang the bell
Said save this one for Isabel

[Pre-chorus]
Candles waiting, matches in hand
Whole room hushed like we planned
Something sweet's about to swell

[Chorus]
Isabel, you're the treat we save
Isabel, worth the fuss we made
Cut the string, let the good times swell
Happy birthday, our Isabel

[Bridge]
Every year we tie the bow again
Every year the joy's the same
You're the reason we still dwell
On birthdays sweeter than farewell

[Chorus]
Isabel, you're the treat we save
Isabel, worth the fuss we made
Cut the string, let the good times swell
Happy birthday, our Isabel

[Outro]
Red twine loosens, box comes open
Sweetest thing that we could offer
