  Verse 1

  The caravan was rocking on its wheels Plates stacked high, the whole thing swayed You laughed until the table shook Nobody cared how the night got spread

  Chorus

  Ahmed, stand up, let the horns come in Somebody's clapping, somebody's grinned We came here just to make you glad Ahmed, this whole room lifts for you instead

  Verse 2

  You handed round the paper plates Made sure that everyone got fed There's always room for one more chair When you're the one who's at the head

  Pre-chorus

  Count the candles, count the years Somebody's reaching for the mic We're not finished yet, not close

  Chorus

  Ahmed, stand up, let the horns come in Somebody's clapping, somebody's grinned We came here just to make you glad Ahmed, this whole room lifts for you instead

  Bridge

  However far this old van's rolled You kept us warm, you kept us close Nobody else could hold a room The way you do, the way you always chose

  Chorus

  Ahmed, stand up, let the horns come in Somebody's clapping, somebody's grinned We came here just to make you glad Ahmed, this whole room lifts for you instead

  Outro

  Stack the plates, the night's not done We'll toast you till the candles spread

  Verse 1

  Chairs pulled out just for tonight Someone strung the bulbs up bright You walk in and hush the noise Every face lights up with joy

  Pre-chorus

  We saved the middle seat for you Turned the speakers up on cue Count it down, the night's not through

  Chorus

  Ahmed, tonight is yours instead Every song we sing gets said Cake is cut and candles spread Ahmed, throw your hands, go ahead

  Verse 2

  Someone taped a sign up high Balloons keep drifting to the sky You laugh and the whole room turns This is the night that's yours, it burns

  Chorus

  Ahmed, tonight is yours instead Every song we sing gets said Cake is cut and candles spread Ahmed, throw your hands, go ahead

  Bridge

  However far you've been and led We circle back around you instead One more year, one more year ahead Ahmed, this crowd showed up for Ahmed

  Chorus

  Ahmed, tonight is yours instead Every song we sing gets said Cake is cut and candles spread Ahmed, throw your hands, go ahead

  Outro

  Lights go low, the chairs still stand Happy birthday, held in this hand

  Verse 1

  Fog was thick on the window glass Riding home in the back that night You traced a heart with your thumb And the whole bus filled with light

  Pre-chorus

  Every year you keep on giving Warmth that spreads through frozen rooms Now it's time we start the lifting

  Chorus

  Ahmed, stand up, let it be said This is your day, wear the crown Clap your hands, Ahmed, lift your head We are so glad you're around

  Verse 2

  You held doors when no one asked you Carried tired hearts to bed Never counted what it cost you You just showed up, and you led

  Bridge

  So let the whole room sing it loud Let every voice come find you here Nothing about you goes unnoticed Not on this day, not on any year

  Chorus

  Ahmed, stand up, let it be said This is your day, wear the crown Clap your hands, Ahmed, lift your head We are so glad you're around

  Outro

  The glass has cleared, the road rolls on We're glad it brought us here, to you
