forgot about this song

[illin]

Today I was listening to the radio and heard this song on the radio. I forgot about it, first time hearing it since I found out im gona be a dad.

CREED
"With Arms Wide Open"

"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...

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"


I shed a tear

Now listen to the Talking Heads "Stay Up Late" ... then you can laugh a little too

Then, Loggins & Messina "Danny's Song" and you can cry again.

Crosby Still Nash - Teach You Children -- words to live by.

Peace. And Congrats daddy

PS And here's one I penned a few years back shortly after my daughter was born. Sung to the tune of "Safety Dance"

Safety Pants (as sung to my daughter)

Ssss-Aaaa-Ffff-Eeee-Tttt-Yyyy
Safety-Pants!

Ah, we can wet our pants if we want to, we can leak from our behind
Cause if you wear safety pants, then do a little dance
You can leave control behind.
I say, we can pooh where we want to, it stays close to our behind
And we may smell like we come from out of this world
So we hope that you don't mind,
And we can dance

We can pooh where we want to, it stays close to our behind
But if we had one wishy, we'd wish it wasn't squishy
But it don't leak so we don't mind.
I say, we can go where we want to, it stays close to our behind
So don't take it off cause it'll make you cough
You just might lose your mind,
And we can dance
