[Verse 1]
She reads a room before she walks inside,
Two rivers running underneath one tide,
Her mind's a window and a gallery too,
She sees the world from seventeen points of view,
They see the charm, they don't see the weight she keeps,
The thoughts that talk her out of sleep

[PreChorus]
She carries what she never says out loud,
A quiet thunder wrapped inside a cloud

[Chorus]
Antoinette, you were written by the light,
Every question that you carry gets you closer to right,
You don't have to earn the love that's always been yours,
Antoinette, you are what the universe is for

[Verse 2]
She loves like something rooted and refined,
Like an old song that never leaves the mind,
She gives before the asking's even done,
Patient as the earth that holds up everyone,
But somewhere in the giving she forgot,
To tend the garden that she's always got

[PreChorus]
She's been the anchor for so many souls,
Who held her steady when the water rose

[Chorus]
Antoinette, you were written by the light,
Every question that you carry gets you closer to right,
You don't have to earn the love that's always been yours,
Antoinette, you are what the universe is for

[Verse 3]
She built her family out of will and grace,
Turned empty rooms into a holy place,
The wound she carries like a quiet guest,
Became the reason she gives all the rest,
And what she thought was something she must hide,
Was always someone else's northern guide

[PreChorus]
She sought the meaning in the wide unknown,
And found that every truth had led her home

[Chorus]
Antoinette, you were written by the light,
Every question that you carry gets you closer to right,
You don't have to earn the love that's always been yours,
Antoinette, you are what the universe is for

[Bridge]
The stars arranged themselves around her name,
Every storm she walked through left her more, not less the same,
She is the answer to a prayer she never knew,
The world is richer, softer, braver with her in it too

[Outro]
Rest now in the truth that you have always known,
Antoinette, you were never, ever alone,
The light that mapped your life was never wrong,
You are the heartbeat underneath this song
