  Verse 1

  We threw the boxes in the back Barely shut the door in time You laughed and told us hold on tight Nothing in this world runs on a line

  Pre-chorus

  Engine's loud and streets are bright Every mile feels close and clear Something's building up tonight

  Chorus

  Amir, we're raising up a cheer Nobody drives like you, my dear Every road you take feels near Amir, Amir, we're glad you're here

  Verse 2

  You packed the car without a plan Grinning at the mess we made We didn't know which way we'd land But we would follow, unafraid

  Bridge

  Fast lights blur to gold and grey Still your name's the one I'd say

  Chorus

  Amir, we're raising up a cheer Nobody drives like you, my dear Every road you take feels near Amir, Amir, we're glad you're here

  Outro

  Boxes rattling in the back We'd ride again, no question, on this track

  Verse 1

  You bring the oranges in armfuls Spill them out and call us over Wooden spoons stacked in the crate You turn a Tuesday into carnival

  Pre-chorus

  Somebody put the music on Somebody bring the good plates out We're building up to something clear

  Chorus

  Amir, this whole room loves you Every year we're gathered near you We came just to raise a cheer Nobody does it like Amir

  Verse 2

  You never let a birthday pass quiet Always find a reason to gather You hand out oranges like blessings Say the sweetness matters, not the number

  Bridge

  However far, we're finding our way back However loud, we're louder still for you

  Chorus

  Amir, this whole room loves you Every year we're gathered near you We came just to raise a cheer Nobody does it like Amir

  Outro

  Pass the oranges round the table We'll keep the spoons for another year

  Verse 1

  You're under that car till midnight Chasing a rattle you can't see Hands black as the oil beneath it That's just how you're built to be

  Pre-chorus

  Everybody wants you near them You fix what the rest call done So light the candles, gather round now

  Chorus

  Amir, Amir, we're raising a cheer Another year, and we're glad you're here Whatever you touch, you make it clear Nobody else like you, Amir

  Verse 2

  You never once left a friend stranded Out on the road in the dark You'd drop a wrench and come running That kind of love leaves a mark

  Chorus

  Amir, Amir, we're raising a cheer Another year, and we're glad you're here Whatever you touch, you make it clear Nobody else like you, Amir

  Bridge

  Here's to the hands that keep giving Here's to the heart running clean Every year you keep on lifting Us up to see what you've seen

  Chorus

  Amir, Amir, we're raising a cheer Another year, and we're glad you're here Whatever you touch, you make it clear Nobody else like you, Amir

  Outro

  Wipe your hands, come join the table You're the reason we're gathered here
