  Verse 1

  Silver fork through yellow icing Everybody's watching you tonight Paper plate can't hold this feeling You're the reason we got the lights

  Pre-chorus

  Music rising, hands are clapping Something sweeter than we've ever seen Say the name and watch it happen

  Chorus

  Jacqueline, you light the table Twice as bright as any queen Dance for us if you are able Nothing here beats Jacqueline

  Verse 2

  You walked in and changed the room Every voice picked up its tune We been waiting all week long Just to sing you this one song

  Bridge

  Icing on your fingertips Laughter spilling past your lips However old you are tonight You're still the one who feels like light

  Chorus

  Jacqueline, you light the table Twice as bright as any queen Dance for us if you are able Nothing here beats Jacqueline

  Outro

  Lick the fork and take your bow We're glad we get to love you now

  Verse 1

  Wet wool turning in the drum Round and round the same routine But nothing spins like your good heart Nothing steady, warm and keen

  Pre-chorus

  Been turning circles all year long Holding tight what you love best Now the tune is building up

  Chorus

  Jacqueline, you keep us spinning Jacqueline, you hold the seam Every soul that gets close to you Comes out brighter than it's been

  Verse 2

  Some folks fade like an old shirt Left too long out in the sun But you come back around each time Colours holding, never done

  Pre-chorus

  Been turning circles all year long Holding tight what you love best Now the tune is building up

  Chorus

  Jacqueline, you keep us spinning Jacqueline, you hold the seam Every soul that gets close to you Comes out brighter than it's been

  Bridge

  Blow the candles, stomp the floor Sing it loud so the whole street hears We are lucky you spin near us Lucky to have you all these years

  Chorus

  Jacqueline, you keep us spinning Jacqueline, you hold the seam Every soul that gets close to you Comes out brighter than it's been

  Outro

  Wet wool settles, warm and still We are better for having you near

  Verse 1

  Streetlights blurred on that old windowpane You hummed along like nothing could stain The night went on, you stayed serene Best thing I ever have seen

  Pre-chorus

  Every mile you made feel kind Nothing about you left behind So let this candle catch and lean

  Chorus

  Jacqueline, the room lifts up your name Nobody lights a night the same You make the ordinary gleam Happy birthday, Jacqueline

  Verse 2

  You laughed until the glass went warm Steady hand through every storm Still the calm in in between Still the brightest I have seen

  Pre-chorus

  Every mile you made feel kind Nothing about you left behind So let this candle catch and lean

  Chorus

  Jacqueline, the room lifts up your name Nobody lights a night the same You make the ordinary gleam Happy birthday, Jacqueline

  Bridge

  Here's to another year of you Here's to the good the whole way through Whatever road you're travelling on

  Chorus

  Jacqueline, the room lifts up your name Nobody lights a night the same You make the ordinary gleam Happy birthday, Jacqueline

  Outro

  Streetlights still blur, but you stay clear Happiest birthday, we're glad you're here
