with legs wide open

September 10, 2007

This was one of my favorite songs from Creed back in the late 90s. I was very moved by the song when I first heard it 8 years ago and I never got bored of this song until today. It’s a pity that Creed has been disbanded too early because they are a band to be reckon with since there were too many wannabe in the entertainment industry nowadays. I think the song is very meaningful for every dads or dad-to-be or even hubbies.

With Arms Wide Open - Creed

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

Well I don’t know if I’m ready
To be the man I have to be
I’ll take a breath, I’ll take her by my side
We stand in awe, we’ve created life

With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I’ll show you everything
With arms wide open
Now everything has changed
I’ll show you love
I’ll show you everything
With arms wide open
With arms wide open
I’ll show you everything …oh yeah
With arms wide open..wide open

[Guitar Break]

If I had just one wish
Only one demand
I hope he’s not like me
I hope he understands
That he can take this life
And hold it by the hand
And he can greet the world
With arms wide open…
