Tie It to the Post
Style: Swing big band

[Verse 1]
I saw the flower stall this morning
and thought of you right on the spot
one balloon tied to the post there
holding on tighter than it ought

[Pre-chorus]
The band's about to hit the corner
every horn is warming up
so raise whatever's in your glass now

[Chorus]
Oscar, light the whole street up
every window, every door
Oscar, you're the reason for it
we'll be shouting out for more

[Verse 2]
You walk in like the trumpets called you
like the whole parade knew when
every stranger stops to grin now
you turn corners into friends

[Bridge]
Let the ribbon come untied
let it lift and let it climb
you're the brightest thing in sight here
on this one particular night

[Chorus]
Oscar, light the whole street up
every window, every door
Oscar, you're the reason for it
we'll be shouting out for more

[Outro]
Somewhere that balloon's still rising
same as you, we're letting go
