Verse 1
Cups crushed down on the wet grass We danced here till the night went past The water still moves slow by the gate And nobody dances quite like you do
Pre-chorus
Hold the candle, make a wish Lift your cup, we're calling this One more year that leads us to
Chorus
Ismail, you're the wisp of trail We follow through, we never fail You light this whole canal tonight Ismail, Ismail, raise the ale
Verse 2
The lock gates creak, the water climbs You've pulled us through some crooked times Every year you find new light And you make this tired old towpath shine
Pre-chorus
Hold the candle, make a wish Lift your cup, we're calling this One more year that leads us to
Chorus
Ismail, you're the wisp of trail We follow through, we never fail You light this whole canal tonight Ismail, Ismail, raise the ale
Bridge
Another year, another tale You steady us, you never fail Sing loud enough to wake the gate We're glad you're here, we're glad you stayed
Chorus
Ismail, you're the wisp of trail We follow through, we never fail You light this whole canal tonight Ismail, Ismail, raise the ale
Outro
Cups crushed down on the wet grass We'll toast you here till this year's past

Verse 1
Streamers caught up in the wires above Tangled bright where the trains all call You walk through like you own the station Steady heart while the whole board falls
Pre-chorus
Every platform hums a little louder now Every clock waits just to see your face Something's building, and it's building towards you
Chorus
Ismail, the whole room's lit for you Come on and kiss the veil tonight We're calling out the name we're tied to Ismail, you make the dark feel bright
Verse 2
Numbers spin but you're the one that's steady Ribbons swaying where the diesel blows Every stranger passing slows to notice Something warmer than the tracks below
Pre-chorus
Every platform hums a little louder now Every clock waits just to see your face Something's building, and it's building towards you
Chorus
Ismail, the whole room's lit for you Come on and kiss the veil tonight We're calling out the name we're tied to Ismail, you make the dark feel bright
Bridge
Let the streamers fall like ticker tape Let the whistle blow us all off track Whatever mile you're bound to travel We'll be here cheering till you're back
Chorus
Ismail, the whole room's lit for you Come on and kiss the veil tonight We're calling out the name we're tied to Ismail, you make the dark feel bright
Outro
Streamers still caught up there in the wires We'll keep singing long after they fall

Verse 1
You kept these boxes half your life stacked up against the mossy wall behind a lock gone rough with rust you saved the best of it for all
Chorus
Ismail, we found the key tonight open the padlock, step into the light we came to sing and raise a cheer Ismail, glad that you are here
Verse 2
You never made a show of it the way you love comes quiet, true the timber leans but still it holds the way that we hold on to you
Pre-chorus
So let the candles catch and blaze let every voice here find its place we are not waiting one more breath
Chorus
Ismail, we found the key tonight open the padlock, step into the light we came to sing and raise a cheer Ismail, glad that you are here
Bridge
Whatever you have carried far however heavy, here you are and every year you stack up high just makes us love you more, not less
Chorus
Ismail, we found the key tonight open the padlock, step into the light we came to sing and raise a cheer Ismail, glad that you are here
Outro
The lock swings loose, the walls stay strong so happy birthday, carry on
