  Verse 1

  Boxes stacked beside the vines tomatoes climbing green and slow you planted both these growing signs and never once let either go

  Pre-chorus

  You counted candles, counted years you kept the garden through the rain now let the whole room hear

  Chorus

  Remi, light the candles now we're singing loud for you today however this year found you somehow Remi, Remi, hip hooray

  Verse 2

  You gave the biggest slice away kept the smallest piece for you that's just how you spend a day giving more than what was due

  Bridge

  So let us stack the boxes higher let the candles catch and burn this is your day, come closer, nearer this is the year we all return

  Chorus

  Remi, light the candles now we're singing loud for you today however this year found you somehow Remi, Remi, hip hooray

  Outro

  The tomatoes will keep on climbing the boxes will fold flat again

  Verse 1

  Snow is piling on the fence cups gone quiet, thick and dense but the noise tonight is you loud and bright in everything you do

  Pre-chorus

  Light the horns and count the years clap it out and lose the fears something's coming, can you feel it near

  Chorus

  Remi, get the trumpets going one more year and still it's showing nobody lights a room like Remi you're the loudest, brightest memory

  Verse 2

  Cold outside but who's counting warm in here, the joy is mounting every glass we lift up high catches something in your eye

  Chorus

  Remi, get the trumpets going one more year and still it's showing nobody lights a room like Remi you're the loudest, brightest memory

  Bridge

  However far the snow gets deep however long the winters keep we'll dig you out, we'll shout your name the whole room burning like a flame

  Chorus

  Remi, get the trumpets going one more year and still it's showing nobody lights a room like Remi you're the loudest, brightest memory

  Outro

  Let the snow keep falling deep on the fence where good things keep

  Verse 1

  Paper streamers catch the wind Tangled round the old brick stack Somebody hung them up for you And the whole street's throwing back

  Chorus

  Remi, light the porch up now Sky's gone pale but you're the spark Everybody came for Remi You're the flame against the dark

  Verse 2

  Kick your boots up on the step Let the fiddle find the beat Every year we build it bigger Just to watch you own the street

  Pre-chorus

  Chimney's leaning, streamers swinging Evening's turning slow to grey Something's building, we're all singing

  Chorus

  Remi, light the porch up now Sky's gone pale but you're the spark Everybody came for Remi You're the flame against the dark

  Bridge

  Clap your hands, stomp the porch board Nobody here wants to leave One more year we get to keep you One more reason to believe

  Chorus

  Remi, light the porch up now Sky's gone pale but you're the spark Everybody came for Remi You're the flame against the dark

  Outro

  Streamers still stuck on that chimney Same as you, stuck in our hearts
