[Verse 1]
You carry fire that moves before the world can catch up
A mind that sparks with every dawn, never giving up
They see your gentle smile, the way you light the room
But miss the restless ocean that's been stirring since your youth
You love with your whole heart, then wonder if it's true
That anyone could see the depth of all you carry through

[PreChorus]
There's a rhythm in your restlessness, a purpose in your pace
You're not scattered, you're exploring every corner of this space

[Chorus]
Oh Bernice, you're a flame that dances in the wind
Strong and wild and beautiful, where do we begin
You don't need to choose between your fire and your grace
Bernice, you're exactly who you're meant to be in this place

[Verse 2]
You feel everything so deeply that sometimes you retreat
Into the quiet spaces where your heart and mind can meet
The world sees your commitment, how you show up every day
But doesn't know the weight you hold, the price you sometimes pay
You're building something lasting while your spirit wants to fly
A bridge between the practical and reaching for the sky

[PreChorus]
There's wisdom in your worry, there's strength beneath your doubt
You're not lost, you're just learning what this journey's all about

[Chorus]
Oh Bernice, you're a flame that dances in the wind
Strong and wild and beautiful, where do we begin
You don't need to choose between your fire and your grace
Bernice, you're exactly who you're meant to be in this place

[Verse 3]
You've always been the one who holds the dream for everyone
Who sees what could be possible before it's even begun
Your friends become your family, your vision becomes prayer
You weave connection into gold, find hope in the despair
The universe has mapped your path through friendship and through fight
You're meant to be the bridge that brings the darkness into light

[PreChorus]
There's a compass pointing home inside your beating heart
You're not behind, you're right on time, you've been whole from the start

[Chorus]
Oh Bernice, you're a flame that dances in the wind
Strong and wild and beautiful, where do we begin
You don't need to choose between your fire and your grace
Bernice, you're exactly who you're meant to be in this place

[Bridge]
Every contradiction makes you whole
Every question leads you to your soul
You are guided, you are held, you are enough
All your softness and your strength, all your gentle and your tough

[Outro]
The stars have been conspiring just to make a heart like yours
One that burns with quiet courage and still opens up its doors
You don't need to be perfect, just present and true
The world needs what you carry, don't give your gifts away too soon
