[Verse 1]
Theresa, you carry the still of a quiet sea
A softness wrapped in something fierce no one quite sees
You move like roots that grow through stone, slow and unafraid
Holding more than you let on, in every breath you've made

[PreChorus]
There's a depth behind your eyes the world can't quite explain
A garden growing in the dark, a kindness through the rain

[Chorus]
Theresa, you were never meant to fit a smaller frame
You're the calm before the thunder learns your name
You love the way the ocean loves the shore
Steady, certain, asking for nothing more

[Verse 2]
You think in colors others miss, in feelings others fear
You hear the song between the words, and hold it close, sincere
You give yourself to those you love like petals to the wind
Then wonder, in the quiet hours, where you yourself begin

[PreChorus]
But every storm you've walked through left a softness in its place
A wisdom carved in tenderness, a strength dressed up as grace

[Chorus]
Theresa, you were never meant to fit a smaller frame
You're the calm before the thunder learns your name
You love the way the ocean loves the shore
Steady, certain, asking for nothing more

[Verse 3]
There's a chapter still unwritten, and it's reaching for your hand
A version of you waiting where the deeper waters land
You'll trade the weight of pleasing for a truth that feels like home
And find the ones who love the quiet country of your bone

[PreChorus]
The years ahead are softer than the ones you've left behind
A slower kind of knowing, Theresa, a gentler kind of mind

[Chorus]
Theresa, you were never meant to fit a smaller frame
You're the calm before the thunder learns your name
You love the way the ocean loves the shore
Steady, certain, asking for nothing more

[Bridge]
You don't have to carry every silence in the room
You don't have to bloom in seasons that were never meant to bloom
The world will meet you slowly, and the right ones always stay
Theresa, you were always going to find your way

[Outro]
So let the morning hold you, let the evening sing you home
You were never, ever, ever, walking this alone
