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

 With arms wide open under the sunlight 
 [bad word] 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 
 [bad word] 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 every thing, 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 
 [bad word] 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
