lyrics

There should be cake

I'm glad that you could make it
Your jacket, let me take it
I'm happy you came over
I know it's really late
Remember what you asked me?
I know it won't be easy
But maybe we can plan this
together while we wait

I want there to be music and fireworks exploding
I want there to be ice cream and bonfires by the lake
I think there should be dancing and somersaults and singing
And people should go fishing And yes, there should be cake!

Well, you don't wanna hear this
I know that we both fear this
But we could make it lighter
I feel that we should try
Let's rise to this occasion
and have a celebration
Of life and what comes after
Well, you know...when I die

I know there will be crying But tears are only water
So promise me a party 'Cause no one wants a wake
And fill the air with trumpets And make it feel like summer
Forget about the eulogy, but make sure there is cake!

Wear your best dress as you dance through the night
No need for you to feel low
Lightly step back from the tunnel of light
Laugh as you're letting me go

I want there to be music and fireworks exploding
I want there to be ice cream and bonfires by the lake
I think there should be dancing and somersaults and singing
and people should go fishing and yes, there should be cake!
