She wakes up with the sunrise, coffee in her hand
Counting all the heartaches that she can withstand
In a town of whispers, she stands tall and strong
Living through the hard times, she's where she belongs
There's mud on her boots, and a tear in her eye
But she won't let the sorrow darken her sky
With her heart on her sleeve and a fire in her soul
She's climbing every mountain, filling every hole
Keeper of the flame, burning through the nights
With the strength of a warrior, she's winning all her fights
Through storms and trials, she holds her head high
Keeper of the flame, reaching for the sky
She's stitched together quilts of love and of pain
In the patchwork of life, she'll dance in the rain
When the world brings her down, she stands even prouder
Every whisper, every shout, makes her voice even louder
Through dusty roads and broken dreams, she moves ahead
For every tear she's cried, a thousand smiles spread
With a heart that's unyielding, and a spirit so grand
She's woven her story with hands from this land
Keeper of the flame, burning through the nights
With the strength of a warrior, she's winning all her fights
Through storms and trials, she holds her head high
Keeper of the flame, reaching for the sky
