[Intro]
Jessica...
Listen...
The wind of August 25th...
Whispers your name...
A brand new page...
Opens up for you...
Breathe...
This is your day...
────────────────────
[Verse 1]
They call you the fighter
The one who never bent
Even when the night was long
Even when your strength was spent
Maureen watched you growing
With pride shining in her eyes
Her princess, her treasure
Her gift beneath the skies
How many hidden tears
How many battles fought alone
But you never gave it up
Even when your heart turned to stone
Today I want to tell you
That every fall made you rise
That every pain you carried
Became a melody in disguise
────────────────────
[Pre-Chorus]
So today we're singing
For the one who stood back tall
For the woman strong and gentle
Who rose above it all
────────────────────
[Chorus]
Jessica, my fighter...
Happy birthday to you...
Jessica, Maureen's princess...
May peace find its way to you...
Jessica, keep on rising...
Your light was made to stay...
Jessica, my fighter...
This year is your day...
────────────────────
[Verse 2]
Thank you for not giving up
Even when the clouds turned grey
Thank you for standing tall
When the storm had its way
This new age that's beginning
Like a dawn upon your life
Will carry less of silence
And more of peace, less strife
May every step be lighter
May every breath be kind
May your road be brighter
May you leave the fear behind
The fears of yesterday
That have no place in you
Because you're a light, Jessica
Born to lead the way through
────────────────────
[Bridge]
One Love... for Jessica...
Forever strong...
You shine, you rise...
────────────────────
[Verse 3]
Maureen planted love
Deep inside her daughter's heart
And that love keeps on carrying
Jessica, giving her a fresh start
You're the fruit of a courage
Passed from mother down to child
A legacy, a face
That through the pain still smiled
May this brand new year
Be filled with all healing grace
May your heart find its peace
May it find its rightful place
The peace that I wish you
Is not just a word in air
It's a quiet little prayer
To light your path with care
────────────────────
[Verse 4]
Jessica, look at the distance
You've already walked alone
You hold your destiny
Even through the storms you've known
Be proud of who you are
Of the woman that you've become
May gentleness now heal
The heart that beat and never numb
May God bless your journey
May He light up every day
May doubt no longer
Stand in your way
────────────────────
[Break]
Jessica...
Breathe the life...
Happy Birthday...
My fighter...
────────────────────
[Final Chorus]
Jessica, my fighter...
Happy birthday to you...
Jessica, Maureen's princess...
May peace find its way to you...
Jessica, keep on rising...
Your light was made to stay...
Jessica, my fighter...
This year is your day...
────────────────────
[Outro]
Jessica...
May your path shine bright...
May peace stay in you...
Happy birthday...
