Welcome
There are two versions of the song: Phil Collin’s version and the soundtrack version performed by the Blind Boys of Alabama.
Phil Collin’s Version
There’s nothing complicated
About the way we live
We’re all here for each other
Happy to give
Proud of who we are
Humble beneath the stars
We’ve everything we need
The moon, the sun
There’s more than enough here
For everyone
All we have we share
And all of us we care
So come on
Welcome to our family time
Welcome to our brotherly time
We’re happy giving and taking
To the friends we’re making
There’s nothing we won’t do
Welcome to our family time
Welcome to our happy to be time
This is our festival
You know and best of all
We’re here to share it all
There’s a bond between us
Nobody can explain
It’s a celebration of life
And seeing friends again
I’d be there for you
I know you’d be there for me too
So come on
Welcome to our family time
Welcome to our brotherly time
This is our festival
You know and best of all
We’re here to share it all
Remembering loved ones departed
Someone dear to your heart
Finding love, planning a future
Telling stories and laughing with friends
Precious moments you’ll never forget
This has to be the most beautiful
The most peaceful place
I’ve ever been to
It’s nothing like I’ve ever seen before
When I think of how far I’ve come
I can’t believe it
And yet I see it
In them I see family
I see the way we used to be
Come on
Welcome to our family time
Welcome to our brotherly time
We’re happy giving and taking
To the friends we’re making
There’s nothing we won’t do
Welcome to our family time
Welcome to our happy to be time
This is our festival
You know and best of all
We’re here to share it all
We’re here to share it all
