Teresa’s Song – Some Things Don’t Fade

VERSE 1

We were kids on a small-world street,
Making it through those hard-knock weeks together.
You were the steady one I leaned on then,
My sister, my anchor, my first real friend.
Life had a way of pulling at the seams,
Time drew a line in between you and me—
But miles don’t matter when the roots run deep,
And ours just waited there, quiet, underneath.

PRE-CHORUS

Even when the years moved on,
And life put distance in the way,
The bond we built as kids stayed strong—
Some things just don’t fade.

CHORUS

You’ve always been the one who gives more than you take,
Always thinking of others in your own bright, loving way.
You’ve held life together with heart and grace,
You’ve always found a way to make things work.

But this next part of life is finally yours to live,
A chapter wide open with places waiting for you to finally discover…
’Cause the best parts of you — they don’t fade.

VERSE 2

You’ve handled a lot in life with that steady way you have,
Doing what needed doing, making each moment last.
Life took us down separate roads for a while,
But I’m grateful we reconnected — truly best friends again.

Now you’re stepping into days that are finally your own,
With opportunities ahead that you’ve more than earned.

PRE-CHORUS

Even when the years moved on,
And life put distance in the way,
The bond we built as kids stayed strong—
Some things just don’t fade.

CHORUS

You’ve always been the one who gives more than you take,
Always thinking of others in your own bright, loving way.
You’ve held life together with heart and grace,
You’ve always found a way to make things work.

But this next part of life is finally yours to live,
A chapter wide open with places waiting for you to finally discover…
’Cause the best parts of you — they don’t fade.

⸻

BRIDGE

Teresa, you’ve carried a lot and stayed so strong,
Now it’s your time to live, to laugh, to move on.
There’s a whole world ahead that’s ready and new,
And no one deserves it more than you.

⸻

FINAL CHORUS (Lifted)

You’ve always been the one who gives more than you take,
Always thinking of others in your own bright, loving way.
You’ve held life together with heart and grace,
You’ve always found a way to make things work.

But this next part of life is finally yours to live,
A chapter wide open with places waiting for you to finally discover…
So go live every moment that’s coming your way,
’Cause the best parts of you — they don’t fade.
