[Verse 1] She keeps a picture of the road behind her, Not for the memories, but to remind her, Of all the nights she walked through the rain, Carrying pieces of a broken name. They said, “A heart like yours needs somebody,” Someone to lift it when the world gets heavy, But she learned the weight of her own soul, And how to carry what she couldn’t let go. [Chorus] She ain’t waiting on a rescue line, A midnight promise or a borrowed time. She’s been a fire, she’s been a flame, She’s been the shelter inside the hurricane. If love comes knocking, she’ll open the door, But she won’t be lost like she was before. She’s got two feet and a heart that knows, She can find her way home on her own. [Verse 2] There were roses left on her doorstep, Sweet little words that she almost kept. There were diamonds, there were vows, there were dreams, There were hands reaching out in between. But some hands hold and some hands take, Some promises bend and some promises break. She doesn’t hate what she left behind, She just stopped looking for herself in someone else’s eyes. [Chorus] She ain’t waiting on a rescue line, A midnight promise or a borrowed time. She’s been a fire, she’s been a flame, She’s been the shelter inside the hurricane. If love comes knocking, she’ll open the door, But she won’t be lost like she was before. She’s got two feet and a heart that knows, She can find her way home on her own. [Bridge] Maybe someday someone will stand beside her, Not to save her, just to walk beside her. Not a hero, not a king, Just a soul who understands everything. She doesn’t need a hand to survive, She needs a reason to share this life. There’s a difference, and she finally knows, The kind of love that lets you grow. [Final Chorus] She ain’t waiting on a rescue line, She’s already made peace with the battle scars and time. She’s been the storm, she’s been the calm, She’s been her own forever and her own safe harbor. If love comes knocking, she’ll let it in, But she won’t disappear to make someone win. She’s got two feet and a heart that glows, She can find her way home on her own. [Outro] Yeah, she’ll take a hand if it feels like truth, But she’s never needed one to make it through. She’s been the answer she was searching for, Standing right there all along.
