Welcome to a Life
(Anderson)

And now your life will be so hard
But welcome to a life worth living
Don't judge regrets by younger plans
For all we have we have been given

Me and you, we didn't fit into the plans of all the lives that saved us
But look at all the happiness we've found
Each a living testament to mercies we don't understand
If you need your proof, just look around

And now your life will not be yours
But we only save what we surrender
Don't live the lie that life is yours
The pull of love is never-ending

And it may happen years from now
When you wonder how the pain was all worthwhile
And younger eyes will look at you and smile, "I love you, mom."
I love you, mom
I love you
