  Chorus

  Ivy, open up the door we've got candles, we've got noise this house was quiet till you knocked Ivy, you're the year's best noise

  Verse 2

  The mat says welcome, but we mean it every single time you're near you make the ordinary brilliant you make the doorway feel like cheer

  Verse 1

  We packed the car before the sun Nobody knew quite where we'd go You said just drive, let's have some fun Wherever you sit, that's home, I know

  Pre-chorus

  The engine hums, the road runs on Every mile feels like a song We're nearly there, so hold that thought

  Chorus

  Ivy, light the candles high Sing it loud, don't act shy be Every year you're worth the try Happy birthday, dear old Ivy

  Verse 2

  You wind the window down to shout Laughing loud at nothing much We'd drive all night without a doubt Just to keep this kind of touch

  Bridge

  Wherever this old car might roam You're the reason we call it home No map could ever hold your worth

  Chorus

  Ivy, light the candles high Sing it loud, don't act shy be Every year you're worth the try Happy birthday, dear old Ivy

  Outro

  So pack the car, let's ride again Happy birthday, Ivy, my friend

  Verse 1

  Coins are spinning in the tray Suds are rising, here to stay Somebody hit the lights up bright We came to watch you shine today

  Pre-chorus

  Every drum is warming up Every glass is raised and full We're counting down to you

  Chorus

  Ivy, turn the whole room round Nobody moves without a sound We're spinning colours, wild and true Ivy, you're the finest we have found

  Verse 2

  Washers hum a steady beat Steam is rolling off the heat You strut between the tumbling drums Like you own this whole back street

  Pre-chorus

  Every drum is warming up Every glass is raised and full We're counting down to you

  Chorus

  Ivy, turn the whole room round Nobody moves without a sound We're spinning colours, wild and true Ivy, you're the finest we have found

  Bridge

  Some folk fold their troubles small We just let the whole thing fall Tonight there's nowhere else to be Only you, lighting up us all

  Chorus

  Ivy, turn the whole room round Nobody moves without a sound We're spinning colours, wild and true Ivy, you're the finest we have found

  Outro

  The drums slow down, the lights stay warm You're still the brightest thing in the room
