Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Fifty-nine candles
But I light just one
Watch the wax trembling
Like my voice
Coming undone
I still set a plate
Where you used to sit
Laugh at my own jokes
Hoping you hear it
[Chorus]
So I light a candle for your birthday
Let it flicker like your smile in my mind
If you’re somewhere higher
Looking down at me
Are you happy when you see me try?
I’ll be growing
I’ll be glowing
’til I reach your sky
I light a candle for your birthday
And I tell you that I’m fine (I’m fine)
[Verse 2]
I save you a message
That I’ll never send
Talk to the ceiling
Like it answers back again
All of the things
That I wish you knew
I stack them like wishes
In this tiny flame for you
[Chorus]
So I light a candle for your birthday
Let it flicker like your smile in my mind
If you’re somewhere higher
Looking down at me
Are you happy when you see me try?
I’ll be growing
I’ll be glowing
’til I reach your sky
I light a candle for your birthday
And I tell you that I’m fine (I’m fine)
[Bridge]
If you can see me now
Laughing through the ache
Would you be proud of how
I bend but never break?
I’ll climb a little higher
On every lonely day
’Til looking down on everything
Means I’m closer to your place
[Chorus]
So I light a candle for your birthday
Let it flicker like your smile in my mind
If you’re somewhere higher
Looking down at me
Are you happy when you see me try?
I’ll be growing
I’ll be glowing
’til I reach your sky
I light a candle for your birthday
And I whisper
“I’m alright”
(I light a candle) for your birthday
As it fades into the night
