You never sink when the tide turns rough Marking the lane so we don't drift Simple as that, you're steady enough Turning an ordinary day to gift

Light's coming down soft and slow Everyone's glass is raised up high We're building to the part you know

Calm water holds you, so do we No current pulls you out too far Right where you are is where we need you
Chorus
Cecil, Cecil, sing it loud and clear Nobody floats like you do, Cecil Every single year we're glad you're here Deep down we know we can't deceive you

Verse 1
You spread the map beneath the glow Orange light comes flickering slow Nobody else could read that mess But you always know which way to go
Chorus
Cecil, tonight we sing your name Cecil, you burn a steady flame Every road we've travelled through Somehow led us back to you
Verse 2
Dashboard humming, engine low Streetlamp flickering soft and slow You trace the lines like you've got time For every place we still could go
Pre-chorus
You never needed all the answers Just a candle against the dark So let the whole room raise a glass now
Chorus
Cecil, tonight we sing your name Cecil, you burn a steady flame Every road we've travelled through Somehow led us back to you
Bridge
However far this life has spun You kept the whole thing feeling like home Folded creases, worn out edges Still the map we lean upon
Chorus
Cecil, tonight we sing your name Cecil, you burn a steady flame Every road we've travelled through Somehow led us back to you
Outro
Fold the map up, dim the light Cecil, you were always the guide tonight
