  Verse 1

  Backseat window, breath and steam Paper bags of chips between us You laughed until we lost the seam Nothing ever came between us

  Chorus

  Edie, Edie, light the room Every year you burn already Steady in the winter gloom Never once have you been needy

  Verse 2

  Small hands drawing hearts in fog You wrote your name across the glass Time moved like a sleepy dog Slow enough for it to last

  Pre-chorus

  Count the candles, watch them glow Something in you keeps us ready Here it comes, so let it show

  Chorus

  Edie, Edie, light the room Every year you burn already Steady in the winter gloom Never once have you been needy

  Bridge

  Whatever year this turns out to be You make the ordinary heady We are only here for Edie

  Chorus

  Edie, Edie, light the room Every year you burn already Steady in the winter gloom Never once have you been needy

  Outro

  Wipe the window, clear the steam Here's to you, and here's to Edie

  Verse 1

  You tracked mud in again last night Left your boot prints, left them right Milk bottles waiting by the door We just want you back once more

  Pre-chorus

  We've counted every minute round Kept your welcome safe and sound Now the whole street knows the sound

  Chorus

  Edie, Edie, kick your boots off here Every birthday brings you near Steady as the morning light Edie, you make the whole house right

  Verse 2

  You always ring the bell twice too Like the house won't know it's you We'd know your step in any weather Glad the mat has held together

  Bridge

  However far your boots have been Muddy roads or fields of green This door was always going to hold Waiting warm against the cold

  Chorus

  Edie, Edie, kick your boots off here Every birthday brings you near Steady as the morning light Edie, you make the whole house right

  Outro

  Leave your mud, we'll let it dry Glad you're home, glad you're mine

  Verse 1

  Just a basket, wire and worn Carrots loose and soup for the storm But when you carry it home Something in the room feels reborn

  Pre-chorus

  You make the plain things glow You make the slow days go Tonight we let it show

  Chorus

  Edie, the candles are ready Steady hands, heart already Full of every year you gave us Edie, we're so glad you're Edie

  Verse 2

  You never needed the fuss Just showed up, steady, for us Filled up the gaps in the week Never once made it a fuss

  Chorus

  Edie, the candles are ready Steady hands, heart already Full of every year you gave us Edie, we're so glad you're Edie

  Bridge

  Nobody carries a room like you do Nobody's kindness lands quite so true Blow out the candles, let the whole house cheer

  Chorus

  Edie, the candles are ready Steady hands, heart already Full of every year you gave us Edie, we're so glad you're Edie

  Outro

  Carrots and tins in the basket you hold Just like the love you carry, never old
