[Verse 1]
There's a fire that woke before the morning came
A presence in the room before you spoke your name
You carry something ancient just beneath the shine
A hunger for the real, a heart that reads between the lines
You've walked through rooms and lit them without trying to
And still gone home and wondered if they really knew

[PreChorus]
You feel it all so deeply, more than you let on
A tidal pull beneath the gold you've built your life upon

[Chorus]
Terri, you were written in a language warm and true
Every scar, every season carved the depth that's inside you
Terri, you don't have to earn the space that you already own
The stars mapped out a woman who was born to call this home

[Verse 2]
You love like it's a ceremony, steady and wide
Grand in how you give it, careful what you let inside
You've felt the sting of rooms where no one met you where you stood
And learned to guard the tenderness that others misunderstood
But oh, the way you shine when someone finally holds your gaze
You turn the ordinary into something that amazes

[PreChorus]
The wanting and the waiting lived as tension in your chest
But every wall you built still hid a heart that gave its best

[Chorus]
Terri, you were written in a language warm and true
Every scar, every season carved the depth that's inside you
Terri, you don't have to earn the space that you already own
The stars mapped out a woman who was born to call this home

[Verse 3]
You've questioned where you fit inside the circles you believed
Stood on the edge of something holy, quietly bereaved
But there's a compass pointing further than these roads you know
A horizon full of meaning you were always meant to go
The truth you've chased, the wisdom gathered stone by stone
Was never lost — it was the path that carried you back home

[PreChorus]
The universe didn't make you bold and then forget your name
You are the light, the root, the fire — you were always the flame

[Chorus]
Terri, you were written in a language warm and true
Every scar, every season carved the depth that's inside you
Terri, you don't have to earn the space that you already own
The stars mapped out a woman who was born to call this home

[Bridge]
You are not the praise you chased or the silence left behind
You are something far more steady, far more rare, far more kind
The moon remembers everything the restless heart goes through
And it has always, always known exactly who is you

[Outro]
Let the fire rest, let the roots run deep
Everything you've carried, love, was always yours to keep
Terri, you are held — you always were, you always will be
