[Verse 1]
Traffic crawls
Cell phone calls
Talk radio screams at me
Through my tinted window I see
A little girl
A rust red minivan
She's got chocolate on her face
Got little hands
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And she waves at me
Yeah, she smiles at me
[Chorus]
Well, hello world, how ya been?
Good to see you my old friend
Sometimes I feel, cold as steel
Broken like I'm never gonna heal
I see a light, a little hope, in a little girl
Well, hello world
[Verse 2]
Every day I drive by
A little white church
It's got these little white crosses
Like angels in the yard
Maybe I should stop on in
Say a prayer
Maybe talk to God
Like he is there
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Ooh, I know he's there
Yeah, I know he's there
[Chorus]
Well, hello world, how ya been?
Good to see you my old friend
Sometimes I feel, as cold as steel
And broken like I'm never gonna heal
I see a light, a little grace, a little faith unfurl
Well, hello world
[Bridge]
Sometimes I forget what living's for
And I hear my life through my front door
And I'll breathe it in, oh, I'm home again
I see my wife, my little boy, little girl
Hello world
Hello world
[Outro]
All the empty disappears
I remember why I'm here
Just surrender and believe
I fall down on my knees
Oh, hello world
Hello world
Hello world

That song found us. It was written by Tom Douglas, David Lee and Tony Lane, three of the greatest songwriters in Nashville. The first time I heard it, it wasn’t even a pitch for us, it was just a friend saying, “You need to hear this song.” I loved it, but I didn’t even think about it for us. A coup...
