[Verse 1]
You've got fire in your words and thunder in your heart
Moving steady through the world, building something from the start
There's a wildness in your spirit that the quiet can't contain
You love like lightning strikes, bold and true through joy and pain

[Chorus]
Carolyn, you're the calm before the storm and after
Steady hands and restless soul, seeking what comes after
The world needs your gentle strength, your way of seeing clear
You're exactly who you're meant to be, Carolyn, you're here

[Verse 2]
They see your grace and patience, miss the ocean running deep
All those currents of creation that you carry while you sleep
You've been building walls of service, giving more than you receive
But your worth was never tied to what you do or what you achieve

[Chorus]
Carolyn, you're the calm before the storm and after
Steady hands and restless soul, seeking what comes after
The world needs your gentle strength, your way of seeing clear
You're exactly who you're meant to be, Carolyn, you're here

[Verse 3]
In the quiet of your dreaming, there's a compass pointing home
To the truth that lives inside you, in the places you're alone
Every scar became a story, every wound became a gift
You transform what others carry, help the heavy burdens lift

[Chorus]
Carolyn, you're the calm before the storm and after
Steady hands and restless soul, seeking what comes after
The world needs your gentle strength, your way of seeing clear
You're exactly who you're meant to be, Carolyn, you're here

[Verse 4]
You don't need to prove your value or apologize your light
The universe wrote you carefully with ink that shines so bright
Your search for something deeper is the very thing that saves
You're a bridge between the worlds, riding on the cosmic waves

[Bridge]
You are held, you are guided, you are more than enough
The tender way you love this world is how you heal the rough
Every question that you carry is a doorway to the new
The cosmos knew exactly what it was doing when it made you

[Outro]
So rest your restless spirit in the knowing you belong
Your journey's just beginning, you've been traveling all along
