Welcome to the world my friend
People should be free to go everywhere
To find their own sweet song, to hear the sound of freedom
To every newborn we should smile and say welcome
Welcome to the world my friend
This land is your land
Sometimes we lose our way and hope gets out of sight
When our fears take control and thoughts just cloud our mind
But if we stop and breathe we can start to believe
That visions are not illusions, and that's easy to see
Every guiding star above your head
Every step you took along your path
Can give you so much more than just a destination
They'll teach you how to smile and say welcome
Welcome to the world my friend
This land is your land
It may not be so easy to leave some things behind
When all they ever told you is not to cross that line
But there are no boundaries, nothing that you can't do
This world should be your playground, this sun shines for you
Welcome to the world my friend
People should be free to go everywhere
To find their own sweet song, to hear the sound of freedom
To every newborn we should smile and say welcome
Welcome to the world my friend
This land is your land.
