Welcome to the World (Irma)

(Verse 1) Say hello to the sun, not me but the one above, Feel the warmth in its light, what’s not to love? You’ve lived beneath the earth, in shadows deep and still, But now the world awaits you, every valley, every hill. (Chorus) Welcome to the world, where colors come alive, Where skies stretch wide and mountains thrive. Be careful but hear the rivers’ song, let the wind be your guide, There’s so much for you to see — welcome to the outside. (Verse 2) See the fields of green, the forests dark and wide, Golden sands on beaches where the restless oceans hide. Rivers that wind like silver, through lands both wild and tame, And skies that blush at dawn, like the world itself aflame. (Chorus) Welcome to the world, where colors come alive, Where skies stretch wide and mountains thrive. Feel the rivers’ song, let the wind be your guide, There’s so much here to see — welcome to the outside. (Bridge) Oh, there are whispers in the trees, songs in the sky, Patterns in the starlight, questions drifting by. Every shade and every hue, waiting just for you, So many things to witness, so many things brand-new. (Verse 3) Touch the blossoms in spring, feel the chill of winter’s bite, See autumn paint the forests, a sea of fiery light. Watch the rain fall soft, turning dust to clay, And when the night descends, see stars come out to play. (Chorus) Welcome to the world, where colors come alive, Where skies stretch wide and mountains thrive. Feel the rivers’ song, let the wind be your guide, There’s so much here to see — welcome to the outside. (Outro) So say hello to the sun, the sky, the sea, the land, A world so wide and waiting, just take my hand. I’ll show you all its secrets, the wonders yet unfurled, Chelone, step into light — welcome to the world.
