Verse 1
Paper cups are empty now Ribbon's blowing down the path But nobody wants to leave yet We're all still here for you
Pre-chorus
Something's tugging at the night Nobody's ready for goodbye We're all just waiting on
Chorus
Michael, you're the spark that started this Every single cup we raise says your name You make the ordinary feel vital Michael, we're glad you're the final call
Verse 2
Gravel crunches under boots Streetlights humming, low and gold You're the one who kept us laughing Long after the music stopped
Pre-chorus
Something's tugging at the night Nobody's ready for goodbye We're all just waiting on
Chorus
Michael, you're the spark that started this Every single cup we raise says your name You make the ordinary feel vital Michael, we're glad you're the final call
Bridge
However far this road runs on We'll come back round to you No candle burns out on its own You keep the whole street warm
Chorus
Michael, you're the spark that started this Every single cup we raise says your name You make the ordinary feel vital Michael, we're glad you're the final call
Outro
Ribbon's settled on the gravel We'll carry your name home tonight

Verse 1
Muddy tyres against the wall Boxes stacked up ten feet tall Half your life in that old shed Still you're the one who's up ahead
Pre-chorus
You keep the mess and make it good You fix things nobody else would Tonight we're raising up our glass
Chorus
Michael, Michael, light the candles now Sing it loud and sing it proud somehow You make this crooked family shine Michael, here's to you tonight, it's your time
Verse 2
That bike's been rusting since July You never learned to say goodbye To broken things or bent old frames Just like you, they keep their names
Chorus
Michael, Michael, light the candles now Sing it loud and sing it proud somehow You make this crooked family shine Michael, here's to you tonight, it's your time
Bridge
Another year of boxes packed Another year we're glad you're back You're steady when the rest fall down The best thing standing in this town
Chorus
Michael, Michael, light the candles now Sing it loud and sing it proud somehow You make this crooked family shine Michael, here's to you tonight, it's your time
Outro
Leave the tyres, leave the boxes there Just know how much we love you, Michael, everywhere

Verse 1
Yellow chalk lines on the tarmac Wire fence catching morning sun Even then you had that swagger Marked out ground before you'd won
Pre-chorus
Every year you cross another line Every time you make it look so easy So pour it up, the moment's yours
Chorus
Michael, light the candles now Two feet planted, chin held high Michael, this whole room's for you Born to strut, not wondering why
Verse 2
Same old gate, a different season Still you walk it like you own the place Something in the way you move through reasons Nobody else can take your space
Chorus
Michael, light the candles now Two feet planted, chin held high Michael, this whole room's for you Born to strut, not wondering why
Bridge
Rival, tribal, final, cycle You've spun through every one of these Vital as the sun that finds you Still the name that we believe in
Chorus
Michael, light the candles now Two feet planted, chin held high Michael, this whole room's for you Born to strut, not wondering why
Outro
Chalk fades but the ground remembers You still walking, still the reason
