  Verse 1

  Yellow boots line up outside Somebody's laughing, badly hiding Shouting spills out through the crack Every voice is calling you inside

  Pre-chorus

  We heard your footsteps on the path Counted every single year Now the door is opening wide

  Chorus

  Claire, the whole room's shouting your name Cake is lit and nothing's the same We've been waiting all day right here Claire, this noise is just for your name

  Verse 2

  Somebody stole the biggest chair Saved it just to watch you grin Candles shaking in the draught We can't wait to let you in

  Chorus

  Claire, the whole room's shouting your name Cake is lit and nothing's the same We've been waiting all day right here Claire, this noise is just for your name

  Bridge

  However far you had to come Every year we'd do it again Loud and messy, full of us Glad that you were born, my friend

  Chorus

  Claire, the whole room's shouting your name Cake is lit and nothing's the same We've been waiting all day right here Claire, this noise is just for your name

  Outro

  Kick your boots off by the door We'll keep shouting evermore

  Verse 1

  One chair sits out on the gravel Lights above have lost their travel Still we left a place for you Empty seat but full room too

  Chorus

  Claire, the party starts with your name Light one candle, call out Claire Every year we save you a chair Claire, we're glad that you're still here

  Verse 2

  Bulbs burned out but nobody minds Best light's found in other kinds Every voice here knows your sound Turns a yard into hallowed ground

  Pre-chorus

  Count the years however you dare Count the ways we've all got you covered Here's the part where we all shout

  Chorus

  Claire, the party starts with your name Light one candle, call out Claire Every year we save you a chair Claire, we're glad that you're still here

  Bridge

  Blow it out, make your wish rare Whatever it is, we'll help it grow Nobody else could fill that chair You're the only one we know

  Chorus

  Claire, the party starts with your name Light one candle, call out Claire Every year we save you a chair Claire, we're glad that you're still here

  Outro

  Gravel and lights, that empty chair Was always waiting just for Claire
