We've Been Waiting For You (Arends Carolyn)

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
