Girl Who Carries Mountains

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a girl who carries mountains With a quiet, gentle grace Learned to hold the world together With a smile upon her face At thirteen the road went silent When the storm came rolling through And she stood up like a soldier Doing what she had to do [Chorus] Oh Presley, you're braver than you know A huge heart made of gold that never lets go Through the darkest nights you carried the light Happy birthday to the strongest I know Presley, keep on shining, sweet soul [Verse 2] She became her father's angel Held his hand and stayed up late Praying for the man she missed so Wishing time could set it straight They call her Toot, her little nickname Softer than the load she bears And that dog named Hazel loves her Faithful proof that someone cares [Chorus] Oh Presley, you're braver than you know A huge heart made of gold that never lets go Through the darkest nights you carried the light Happy birthday to the strongest I know Presley, keep on shining, sweet soul [Bridge] Eighteen years and still you're standing Beautiful and strong and true May you finally find your own joy All the love you gave comes back to you [Verse 3] So here's to every mile you traveled Every tear you never showed May the road ahead be gentle May true happiness unfold You gave your whole heart to your family Now it's time the world gives back [Chorus] Oh Presley, you're braver than you know A huge heart made of gold that never lets go Through the darkest nights you carried the light Happy birthday to the strongest I know [Outro] Shine on, sweet Toot, you've earned this day May love and hope light up your way
