[Verse 1]
There's a tide in you that nobody sees at low water
A mind that talks in circles while the heart runs deeper
You've carried everyone's weather like it was your own sky
Holding all the broken pieces, never asking why
You love like roots love the dark — quietly, completely
And the world calls you gentle, but they don't know the half of it

[PreChorus]
You've swallowed storms to keep the peace around you
But there's a thunder in your bones that still astounds you

[Chorus]
You are the ocean and the lantern in the dark, Amelie
The one who gives the most and guards the most tenderly
Every scar you wear has mapped you to this open road
Amelie, you were written with a purpose in your soul

[Verse 2]
You've got a hunger for the far edge of the horizon
A mind that never settles when there's wisdom left to find
You've known the ache of home that wasn't safe enough to stay in
So you built a new one, carefully, from the inside
The world rewards the easy ones but you were made for depth
You carry ancient knowing in the language of your breath

[PreChorus]
You've learned to read the room before you enter
But your light was never meant to hide in winter

[Chorus]
You are the ocean and the lantern in the dark, Amelie
The one who gives the most and guards the most tenderly
Every scar you wear has mapped you to this open road
Amelie, you were written with a purpose in your soul

[Verse 3]
There's a mystery around you that you've never understood
How you draw the lost ones in just by standing where you stood
You've chased your own perfection like a penance to be paid
But every imperfection is the finest thing you've made
The work, the care, the seeking — it was never just ambition
It was love in different clothing, it was holy in its mission

[PreChorus]
The stars were laid with patience when they made you
And everything you've wandered through has saved you

[Chorus]
You are the ocean and the lantern in the dark, Amelie
The one who gives the most and guards the most tenderly
Every scar you wear has mapped you to this open road
Amelie, you were written with a purpose in your soul

[Bridge]
You don't have to earn the right to rest inside your own skin
The compass always pointed home — it's always been within
Let the moon bear witness to the fullness of your worth
You were not a rough draft, you were meant for this earth

[Outro]
So lay your proving down and let the quiet hold you near
Everything you are is more than enough right here
Amelie, the universe wrote you carefully and true
There is no one else alive who's meant to carry what you do
