Lyrics

Verse 1
Amelia, the garden knows your fingerprints,
the bread rose 'cause you kneaded it,
whatever's broken in this house
gets mended where you're seated.
Chorus
Happy birthday to the maker, to the fixer of it all,
Amelia, "industrious" — that's what the old books call
a woman who can build a life from flour, thread, and will,
tonight we made the cake ourselves — you're not allowed to, still.
Verse 2
Pilots borrowed your name to cross an ocean's dare,
we understand completely — it sounds like going somewhere,
but the bravest thing we've watched you do, year after quiet year,
is show up for the people lucky enough to be here.
Bridge
Put the to-do list down,
the only task tonight is being celebrated now.
Chorus
Happy birthday to the maker, to the fixer of it all,
Amelia, tonight the celebration's yours to call.
