Welcome To My World
Dean Martin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Welcome to my world,
Won't you come on in?
Miracles I guess
Still happen now and then.
Step into my heart,
Leave your cares behind,
Welcome to my world
Built with you in mind.
Knock, and the door will open,
Seek, and you will find,
Ask, and you'll be given
The key to this world of mine.
I'll be waiting here
With my arms unfurled,
Waiting just for you,
Welcome to my world.




Waiting just for you,
Welcome to my world

Overall Meaning

Dean Martin's "Welcome to My World" is a song about inviting someone to share in the singer's life and his love for them. Martin is portraying himself as a gracious host opening up his heart and inviting the listener to come in and join him in something special. The lyrics depict a sense of reassuring comfort of someone who is familiar with the world but using it now to transcend their own connections or perceptions of the surroundings. Martin sings of the extraordinariness that can occur within his world, and that he has put this world together specifically for the listener to enjoy.


The song's opening line, "Welcome to my world, won't you come on in?" sets the tone of invitation, leading into the chorus, "Knock and the door will open, seek and you will find, ask and you'll be given the key to this world of mine." This chorus captures the essence of the song, promising that if someone is looking to connect, they will find what they need with Martin. The melody is lovely, with a gentle, swinging rhythm that reflects the welcome, inviting mood of the song. The lyrics and melody go together as they’re meant to feel inviting and comfortable, painting a picture of a world one can step into at any moment for warmth, care, and affection.

I grew up on the Dean Martin Show; every Thursday night. I know there was Sinatra but no one could deliver like Dean. I’m listening to those vinyls my Mom left me…yes the mono’s. The best quote I heard was that Frank thought he was as god. Dean knew he was. To me that says it all.

Fantastic music!!!
I love the violins, backing vocals and Dean's voice!
