Verse 1: Male

You saved the paper crown from last July

It leans a little crooked by the cake

You laugh and say the candles look too high

Then make a wish before the icing shakes

Verse 2: Female

Your sister brought the photo from the pier

The one where wind kept stealing all our hats

We pass it round and pull our chairs in near

The whole room knows just where the good years sat

Pre-Chorus: Duet

One more year, one more story to tell

Here’s to the person we know so well

Chorus: Duet, Harmony

Happy birthday, let the good days roll

May the year ahead bring room to grow

Raise your glass, let your people sing
