[Verse 1]
She carries the mountain but nobody sees the climb
Built on patience and purpose, her foundation holds the line
A mind that chases horizons while her roots hold deep and still
She'll rebuild from every ruin just by wanting to and will
They see the steady surface, not the current running wide
All those questions burning brightly she keeps sheltered deep inside

[PreChorus]
She's wired for wonder, born to understand
A dreamer who builds castles with her own two careful hands

[Chorus]
Diane, you were written in the oldest kind of light
Every contradiction in you proving you got it right
You're the mountain and the meadow, you're the question and the song
Diane, you were never once too much and never once too wrong

[Verse 2]
She speaks in big ideas with a hunger to be heard
But sometimes feels the ache of going unheard word by word
She loves without a blueprint, loves in ways that can't be owned
Gives freely like it costs her nothing, aches a little more alone
But every wall she ever built was just a door she hadn't turned
And every fire that she walked through left her wiser for what burned

[PreChorus]
She's learning that her softness isn't something she should hide
That the ones who've held the most have earned the right to come inside

[Chorus]
Diane, you were written in the oldest kind of light
Every contradiction in you proving you got it right
You're the mountain and the meadow, you're the question and the song
Diane, you were never once too much and never once too wrong

[Verse 3]
She carries other people like the tide holds up the moon
Pours herself into the spaces of each quiet afternoon
There's a compass in her chest that knows the difference between lost and still
Between surrendering to mercy and surrendering to will
She's the kind of rare the world doesn't have a name for yet
The kind of deep that leaves a mark on everyone she's met

[PreChorus]
The universe was careful when it cast her from the sky
Every scar was written in the spaces between why

[Chorus]
Diane, you were written in the oldest kind of light
Every contradiction in you proving you got it right
You're the mountain and the meadow, you're the question and the song
Diane, you were never once too much and never once too wrong

[Bridge]
You don't have to earn your place by holding everything together
You were worthy in the winter, you were worthy in the weather
Let the roots speak for the seasons all the storms could never break
You are more than what you carry, you are more than what you make

[Outro]
The cosmos wrote you carefully with ink that doesn't fade
Diane, you are the miracle of everything you've braved
Rest now in the knowing — you were always right on time
