When I left home to be who I am Some people said "No Way" But I laid it all down, gave everything In my head rang the words that my father said You're never far I will be where you are And when you come to me I will open my arms Welcome Home, you I know you by name How do you do? I shine because of you today So come and sit down Tell me how you are I know son, it's good just to see your face When I look at you holding my heart I will give to you all that I have Son I know there'll be times You will feel all alone I will share with you the words my father said You're never far I will be where you are And when you come to me You can bet I will open my arms Welcome Home, you I know you by name How do you do? I shine because of you today So come and sit down Tell me how you are I know son, it's good just to see your face Said I've been waiting for that day Just to feel your warm embrace Your love has shown I will never be alone You will welcome me home I'll forever be You will say to me Welcome Home, you I know you by name How do you do? I shine because of you today So come and sit down Tell me how you are I know son, it's good just to see your face When I left home to be who I am Some people said "No Way"
