[Verse 1] You noticed the quiet kid in the back of the class Said my story had a place, and the words would come to pass Red pen on the margin, kind words in the lines You turned my fear to courage, one page at a time [Chorus] Thank you, Ms. Alvarez, for believing me You opened up a window that I never could see Thank you, Ms. Alvarez, I carry your light Every word I write is because you were right [Verse 2] I still keep that notebook with a doodled sun You wrote, "keep on going, you have only begun" Now I'm standing in front of a room full of eyes And I hear your voice, calm, kind, and wise [Chorus] Thank you, Ms. Alvarez, for believing me You opened up a window that I never could see Thank you, Ms. Alvarez, I carry your light Every word I write is because you were right

[Verse 1] Three in the morning, hallway light was low You sat beside my father when I had nowhere to go Warm blanket, steady voice, a cup of tea at dawn You made the longest night feel like a hymn we could hold on [Chorus] Thank you, Ben, night-shift angel Gentle hands and a heart so able Thank you, Ben, for the light you brought When every hope was running short [Verse 2] You learned the names of every one of us Brought us chairs and chocolate without a fuss When the sun came up, you smiled and said "Go home and rest, I've got the ones ahead" [Chorus] Thank you, Ben, night-shift angel Gentle hands and a heart so able Thank you, Ben, for the light you brought When every hope was running short
