[Verse 1]
She carries the weight of a thousand small things done right,
Tends to everyone's garden before she tends to her own light,
A mind that moves like water finding every crack and seam,
Practical and restless, always wider than she seems,
She adapts before the room has even noticed she's changed,
And holds the whole world gently while her own heart goes unnamed,

[PreChorus]
They see the easy smile, the wit, the warmth she offers free,
They don't see what it costs her just to let someone in to see,

[Chorus]
Oh Alisa, you are more than what you've carried,
More than all the love you gave before you tarried,
The stars themselves were careful when they made you this way,
You were written in the deep before the light of your first day,

[Verse 2]
She longs to be truly heard the way a song longs for the right ear,
She's chosen her words so slowly, still afraid they'd disappear,
There's an ocean underneath the calm she shows the world each day,
And a wildness in her softness that she hasn't learned to say,
She gives before she's asked, she holds before she's held,
And the depth of what she feels is far too full to be spelled,

[PreChorus]
She's building something lasting from the inside out and through,
Every steady act of courage is a promise to be true,

[Chorus]
Oh Alisa, you are more than what you've carried,
More than all the love you gave before you tarried,
The stars themselves were careful when they made you this way,
You were written in the deep before the light of your first day,

[Verse 3]
She loves like a conversation that goes long past midnight blue,
Like she's tracing constellations just to find her way to you,
She needs both the closeness and the room to roam and grow,
And that's not contradiction, that's the fullness of her soul,
She's learning that belonging isn't something to be earned,
That the warmth she gives so freely is a warmth she has deserved,

[PreChorus]
The roots she's growing downward are as real as what she'll be,
She's not lost, she's finding ground beneath the person she's set free,

[Chorus]
Oh Alisa, you are more than what you've carried,
More than all the love you gave before you tarried,
The stars themselves were careful when they made you this way,
You were written in the deep before the light of your first day,

[Bridge]
She doesn't have to prove it, doesn't have to hold it all,
There's a grace in being caught before you need to fall,
The moon has always known her name in every phase and tide,
She is home enough, she is enough, she is enough inside,

[Outro]
The cosmos built her carefully with ink that never fades,
Every tender contradiction is the light through all her shades,
She is guided, she is held, she has always been enough,
Alisa, you were made for this, and this was made from love,
