Let me hold you close, I know you're frightened   Go ahead and cry, I understand   You were safe and you were warm   And then suddenly without a warning things began to change      It must have been so strange   To all at once be traveling a journey   All the way to this delivery room      But baby, you are not alone   No, your room is ready, let's go home   You're gonna like it here   Let me make it clear that      We've been waiting for you   We're so glad you came   We've been looking forward   To showing you the place   There's so much in store and   We've been waiting for you      I know it can take   Some getting used to   But this old world is   Where you're meant to be      Life is something not to miss   Oh, the taste of ice cream, your first kiss   And when love takes your hand   You will understand why      We've been waiting for you   We're so glad you came   We've been looking forward   To showing you the place   There's so much in store and   We've been waiting for you      Watching you come into this world   Baby, you've made me believe   Another journey awaits us   So when I have to leave      I am pretty sure that I'll be frightened   But even if I cry, please understand   I will know I'm not alone   When my room is ready, I'll go home   And when I reach the gate   I'm gonna hear them saying      We've been waiting for you   We're so glad you came   We've been looking forward   To showing you the place   There's so much in store and   We've been waiting for you
