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    Well I don't know if I'm ready    To be the man I have to be    I'll take a breath, 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    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...
