Verse 1

The lights come on before the town is even awake,

Somebody starts the dough, somebody’s singing for the day.

Tables lined up, chairs in place, coffee brewing strong,

Nobody knows what’s coming, but we’ve been ready all along.

The phone keeps ringing, the list keeps growing, plans are falling through,

But somehow in the madness we always find what to do.

We forget the time, forget our breakfast, sometimes even who we are,

Giving all we’ve got to make somebody else’s day shine hard.

Pre-Chorus

Behind every smile and every plate,

There are a thousand little things nobody sees.

Chorus

And when the door swings open, we’re ready to go,

A little bit crazy, but it works every time.

Running through the laughter, the stories and the crowd,

Making little memories while the music plays loud.

When we think we’ve hit the limit, another wave rolls in,

Before we catch our breath, we’re doing it again.

Verse 2

Fresh bread on the counter, warm sauces on the line,

Someone’s cleaning up a mess while another saves the night.

Meat is sizzling, fish is cooking, orders flying by,

And somehow through the chaos it’s the laughter that survives.

Some keep the big picture, some solve problems on the run,

Some notice the quiet guest and make them feel like someone.

Nobody does it alone, nobody carries it all,

When one of us starts slipping, the others answer the call.

Pre-Chorus

Sometimes we get grumpy, sometimes things go wrong,

But we lift each other higher before the feeling lasts too long.

Chorus

And when the door swings open, we’re ready to go,

A little bit crazy, but it works every time.

Running through the laughter, the stories and the crowd,

Making little memories while the music plays loud.

When we think we’ve hit the limit, another wave rolls in,

Before we catch our breath, we’re doing it again.

Bridge

It’s never just the food or the drinks that we serve,

It’s the feeling that stays long after you’ve left.

A smile, a story, a night that felt right,

Little moments turning into memories tonight.

Some pull the strings, some carry the load,

Some keep the wheels turning when nobody knows.

Take one piece away and the picture’s not the same,

Because every single person is part of the flame.

Final Chorus

And when the door swings open, we’re ready to go,

From the first cup of coffee to the last guest heading home.

We’re not chasing applause, we’re just doing what we do,

And tomorrow when the sun comes up, we’ll do it all brand new.

Outro

Behind the door there’s magic,

A little chaos, a little madness, a whole lot of heart.

And when the lights go down tonight,

We’ll know it was worth it.

Every single time.
