31st July 2009 – Early Morning is when we found out that “we’ve created life”. Since then a lot of people have asked me that how does it feel now. To be honest it still has not completely sunk in. The realisation is getting deeper and deeper with time. But whenever someone asks me about it I always remember the song With Arms Wide Open by Creed from their album Human Clay.
Scott Stapp wrote this song when he came to know that he was becoming a father. I have always loved this song especially the part starting with Well I don’t know if I’m ready. Anyway, here’s the song. Enjoy!
Well I just heard the news today
It seems my life is gonna 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
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…
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
