Up on the Roof
Style: Ceilidh jig

[Verse 1]
We climbed the stairs to find you
With half the street behind you
Someone brought a speaker up
And filled your hand a cup

[Pre-chorus]
The night's still young, the cups still full
Somebody's shoutin', somebody's pulled
A chair up close to sing to you

[Chorus]
Kieran, get up, we're tearin' it up
Pass round the plates, don't stop, don't stop
Kieran, we came for you and no one else
We're sharing this roof, we're sharing this air

[Verse 2]
The old machine hums under us
Steady as a heartbeat, patient, safe
You're laughing at something daft again
And nobody wants to leave this place

[Pre-chorus]
The night's still young, the cups still full
Somebody's shoutin', somebody's pulled
A chair up close to sing to you

[Chorus]
Kieran, get up, we're tearin' it up
Pass round the plates, don't stop, don't stop
Kieran, we came for you and no one else
We're sharing this roof, we're sharing this air

[Bridge]
Every year we find a way up here
Just to tell you plain, you're loved down here
No fancy hall, no grand affair
Just us, the stars, and you up there

[Chorus]
Kieran, get up, we're tearin' it up
Pass round the plates, don't stop, don't stop
Kieran, we came for you and no one else
We're sharing this roof, we're sharing this air

[Outro]
Long after the lights go dim below
We'll still be here, and so will you
