[Verse 1]
She carries the horizon like a second skin,
A mind that never stops and a heart that lets things in,
She speaks the truth before she thinks to soften it,
And the room always remembers where she sits,
She's mapped a thousand roads she hasn't walked just yet,
A Sagittarius soul who hasn't learned to forget,

[PreChorus]
But beneath the warmth, there's a tide no one sees,
A twin-hearted dreamer built for the open breeze,

[Chorus]
Barbara, you are ancient fire and morning light,
A compass pointing true through the longest night,
You were written in the stars before you had a name,
And nothing about you has ever been plain,

[Verse 2]
She loves like something tidal, deep below the floor,
Once she opens up, she gives you everything and more,
She's weighed a thousand choices so no one else would break,
She's swallowed her own hunger just to watch the others take,
That weight was never weakness, it was armor made from care,
The kind of love that lingers long after you're aware,

[PreChorus]
She's built from every wound that she refused to waste,
And grace is what it looks like when the storm moves at her pace,

[Chorus]
Barbara, you are ancient fire and morning light,
A compass pointing true through the longest night,
You were written in the stars before you had a name,
And nothing about you has ever been plain,

[Verse 3]
She's felt the ache of giving all and still not quite enough,
Of watching her own worth get measured by the wrong stuff,
The circles that excluded her, the dreams that fell just short,
The invisible labor of holding up a court,
But every crack she carried let the real light through,
And the world she built with both hands — that was purely you,

[PreChorus]
The cosmos didn't write her small, it wrote her to remain,
A soul too wide for boxes and too real to be contained,

[Chorus]
Barbara, you are ancient fire and morning light,
A compass pointing true through the longest night,
You were written in the stars before you had a name,
And nothing about you has ever been plain,

[Bridge]
You don't need to earn the ground beneath your feet,
You don't need to be unbroken to be complete,
The sky above you kept your name, it always knew,
There is no version of enough that isn't you,

[Outro]
So rest now in the truth of all you've always been,
Barbara — finally seen, finally free, finally home again,
