[Verse 1]
You read every room before you cross the door,
A mind like water finding every shore,
You carry the weight of the ones you love most,
A quiet devotion they'll never quite know,
You've built a whole world from the inside out,
A fortress of feeling wrapped in gentle doubt,

[PreChorus]
They see the surface — the wit, the warm smile,
They don't see the ocean you've been swimming all the while,

[Chorus]
Amanda, you are written in the tide,
Every current, every crack, every part you try to hide,
You were mapped before the morning, you were known before the night,
Amanda, you are more than you believe tonight,

[Verse 2]
You love like something patient, rooted, real,
A hand that reaches quietly before you kneel,
You long for something steady, something true,
Someone who can hold the depth inside of you,
But first you keep it hidden, keep it veiled,
Like a letter you have written but never mailed,

[PreChorus]
The love you pour so freely deserves to find its way back,
You are not too much — you're everything they lack,

[Chorus]
Amanda, you are written in the tide,
Every current, every crack, every part you try to hide,
You were mapped before the morning, you were known before the night,
Amanda, you are more than you believe tonight,

[Verse 3]
You've walked through fires dressed as common days,
And rebuilt yourself in quiet, ordinary ways,
The world needs what you carry in that chest,
That aching need for meaning and the rest,
You've wondered if your worth was yours to own,
But you were never as unworthy as you've known,

[PreChorus]
The stars don't make mistakes with what they place inside a soul,
Every piece of you was chosen — every fractured, burning coal,

[Chorus]
Amanda, you are written in the tide,
Every current, every crack, every part you try to hide,
You were mapped before the morning, you were known before the night,
Amanda, you are more than you believe tonight,

[Bridge]
The moon has always held a place for you,
A Leo fire burning faithful, fierce, and true,
You don't need to earn the light you carry home,
You never have been, never will be, all alone,

[Outro]
Let the tide carry what you cannot say,
You were always meant to find your way,
The cosmos wrote your name before the dawn,
And every word it wrote says — carry on,
