Happy Birthday Friend

Candles up, everybody, this one's for Peace

Midnight, I'm calling you first Before the whole world gets a turn You pick up laughing, half asleep, voice low Like you knew it was me before the screen could glow Peace, you never had to try The calm walks in when you walk by Tempers high, the table loud You lean back and you settle the crowd That's the gift. Whoever named you got it right, I swear

Peace and love, that's what you bring Ọ̀rẹ́ mi, o kú ọjọ́ ìbí o Peace and love, the whole room sings Ẹ jẹ́ ká jó fún Peace!

Ọ̀rẹ́ mi àtàtà Ìwọ ni mo máa ń pè tí nǹkan bá dàrú O kì í bínú sí mi Ẹ̀rín rẹ, ó ń mú inú gbogbo wa dùn Lónìí, ọjọ́ tìrẹ ni Jó, má dúró Wàá pẹ́ láyé o

Peace and love, that's what you bring Ọ̀rẹ́ mi, o kú ọjọ́ ìbí o Peace and love, the whole room sings Ẹ jẹ́ ká jó fún Peace!

Ten years on, we'll still be here Same old jokes, new grey hair If the music stops, I'll hum the tune Peace, I got you and you know I do

Peace and love, that's what you bring Ọ̀rẹ́ mi, o kú ọjọ́ ìbí o Peace and love, the whole room sings Ẹ jẹ́ ká jó fún Peace!

Blow the candles, Peace, it's peace and love
