  Verse 1

  Yellow chairs all pulled up close Crammed round a table built for four Rain on the roof, nobody minds We came for you, not for the view

  Pre-chorus

  Pass the cups, top up the tea Budge up tight as tight can be Something good is about to start

  Chorus

  Happy birthday, dear Camille Every year you feel more real Steam on the windows, hearts on the sleeve Nobody else could make us feel

  Verse 2

  Somebody's knee against the wall Somebody's laugh too big for the room But all of it circles back to you You're the reason we're all still here

  Bridge

  Doesn't matter where we squeeze in Kitchen, caravan, or the street Long as you're the one we're toasting That's the only seat we need

  Chorus

  Happy birthday, dear Camille Every year you feel more real Steam on the windows, hearts on the sleeve Nobody else could make us feel

  Outro

  Chairs will scrape and someone will spill Here's to you, always, Camille

  Verse 1

  Flour on the counter, scale still warm boxes climbing up so tall every layer means we love you one more reason, one more call

  Chorus

  Camille, light every candle now let the whole room sing your name clear a table, make it royal Camille, you make this day a flame

  Verse 2

  We measured sugar just for you kept the good plates on the shelf nobody bakes a day this bright without a little bit of yourself

  Pre-chorus

  So let the ribbons fall like rain let the kitchen shake with sound we're building up to say your name

  Chorus

  Camille, light every candle now let the whole room sing your name clear a table, make it royal Camille, you make this day a flame

  Bridge

  However tall the boxes get you're taller still in every heart this day was always going to come and find you right back at the start

  Chorus

  Camille, light every candle now let the whole room sing your name clear a table, make it royal Camille, you make this day a flame

  Outro

  The scale still sits there, dusted white we made this day for you tonight

  Verse 1

  We sent our plates out on the water Bright little boats past the rusted frames Nothing round here ever looked much brighter Than this small parade that carries your name

  Pre-chorus

  Something about you always shining through Even the grey canal turns gold This feeling's building, right on cue

  Chorus

  Happy birthday, Camille, let the good time reveal Every year you get harder to conceal You light up rooms nobody could ever fulfil We're glad we get to know you, Camille

  Verse 2

  Watch the plates go drifting past the bicycles Nobody's rushing, nobody's in a rush Today's the day we stop and we notice you How much you mean, how much is too much to gush

  Bridge

  However far you travel, however long the while We'll still be here to greet you with that smile Blow out the candles, let the wishes distil Another year of you, and we're not done, Camille

  Chorus

  Happy birthday, Camille, let the good time reveal Every year you get harder to conceal You light up rooms nobody could ever fulfil We're glad we get to know you, Camille

  Outro

  Send the plates out slow on the water We'll watch them go, still singing your name
