Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A baby's eyes open wide,
Filled with love and filled with life.
They look around and see (I seeee)
Untold power and beauty (oooooh)
Their hands are free (so free)
To do with what they please
And the journey, wild or neat.
Is measured by their feet.
[Pre-Chorus]
Mother kisses their forehead
Father grins from ear to ear
The words they speak lodge deep inside
Though it's hard for me to hear, they say
[Chorus]
Welcome to the world
Little one, so new.
A miracle, a blessing
We're in awe of you (oh, oh)
The adventures that lie ahead
We'll be right by your side
So welcome, little one, to the world
[Verse 2]
From crawls to walks, from sounds to talks, I grow. (grow, grow)
But I never lose the words that make me glow (make me glow)
Gettin' smarter, gettin' stronger every daaaayyyy.
I'm a miracle, I'm a blessing, and I gotta let it show.
[Pre-Chorus]
Mother kisses my forehead
Father grins from ear to ear
The words they speak lodge deep inside
And now I can hear them speak, they say
[Chorus]
Welcome to the world
Little one, so new.
A miracle, a blessing
We're in awe of you (oh, oh)
The adventures that lie ahead
We'll be right by your side
So welcome, little one, tooo the world
[Bridge]
But tragedy strikes without warning.
And you just can't ease the pain.
Bear it, accept it, and use it
Turn it into your gain
[Crescendo]
And we can't go on with you
You gotta live your own life
But no matter what, we're proud of you
Our eyes are open wiiiiiiiiiiiide
[Instrumental]
[Outro]
Welcome to the world
Little one, so new.
A miracle, a blessing
We're in awe of you (oh, oh)
The adventures that lie ahead
We'll be right by your side
So welcome, little one, to the world
From Mom and Dad, we say.
Welcome to the world.
