[Verse 1]
There's an ocean behind your careful smile
Depths that no one else can see for miles
You feel everything but hold it tight
A heart that beats in shadows and in light
They think they know your gentle, steady way
But miss the fire that burns beneath the clay

[PreChorus]
You've been building bridges while you're still learning to cross
Giving all your pieces while afraid of what you've lost

[Chorus]
But Colleen, you're written in the stars and rain
Every quiet storm inside you isn't pain
It's the universe that's flowing through your veins
Colleen, you don't need to explain
The way you love like oceans meeting flame

[Verse 2]
You speak in colors others can't quite name
Your mind connects the dots of joy and shame
Independence fights with wanting to belong
You've been singing someone else's song
But there's a rebel sleeping in your bones
A truth that's always calling you back home

[PreChorus]
You've been scared to take up all the space you need
When your biggest gift is planting tiny seeds

[Chorus]
But Colleen, you're written in the stars and rain
Every quiet storm inside you isn't pain
It's the universe that's flowing through your veins
Colleen, you don't need to explain
The way you love like oceans meeting flame

[Verse 3]
Your dreams are bigger than the walls you've known
You're meant for stages, not to stand alone
The world keeps asking you to dim your glow
But honey, that's not how the wildflowers grow
You carry wisdom wrapped in gentle strength
A bridge between two worlds of different lengths

[Bridge]
Stop apologizing for the light you bring
Stop making yourself small to make room for everything
The cosmos wrote you carefully, with intention and with grace
You were born to take up space

[Chorus]
Oh Colleen, you're written in the stars and rain
Every quiet storm inside you isn't pain
It's the universe that's flowing through your veins
Colleen, you don't need to explain
The way you love like oceans meeting flame

[Outro]
There's magic in the way you see it all
The broken pieces and the protocol
You're not too much, you're not too deep
You're exactly what this world needs to keep
