Over the River and Through the Woods

Over the river and through the wood,To grandfather's house we go;The horse knows the wayTo carry the sleigh, Through the white and drifted snow, oh!Over the river and through the wood,Oh, how the wind does blow!It stings the toes,And bites the nose,As over the ground we go.

Well I just heard the news today It seems my life is going to change I closed my eyes, begin to pray Then tears of joy stream down my face

With arms wide open Under the sunlight Welcome to this place I'll show you everything With arms wide open With arms wide open

With Arms Wide Open

The Big MomentAbove the ground high on the ladder,I hear the people below me chatter.

Onto the narrow but large flat boardI see a long, twisted microphone cord.

Around me the wind blows the airThrough my long, thick, twisted hair.

Toward the water I do three flipsInto the water I splash and I dip.
