Note: This is an old songfic I wrote, so its just a repost coz I changed my pen name
Thanks to those who read it before and were kind enough to review.
The song is entitled "With Arms Wide Open" (Duh!). Its a song by 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
* I looked down at my wife sleeping peacefully, in know she's tired my new born son beside her. All those years of wondering are over, the momement she said "tadaima", I knew. I was home. and I would do anything in my power to protect her and make her happy *
With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
* I drape my arms around her proetctively and smile at the wonderful picture they made never in all my years as a wonderer have I thought that this day would come the day I'd find someone who will accept me as she had the day I'd hold my first born child in my arms.... *
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
* I trace my finger on his small hands, and he holds on to it tight I look at our linked hands, and tears fall unwillingly from my eyes. No, he will never taste the kind of life I had... I will make sure of that. *
With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
* I know I am tainted with the blood of those who have died by my hands. I know I dont deserve the happinness I have right now but both of you deserve to be happy and each day I pray that, that happiness will never be taken away *
Now everything has changed
I'll show you love
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
* I dont know what kind of father I will be but these things I promise you will never grow cold, never grow hungry, you will never know suffering. Never. As long as Iam here and you are with me. As long as I have both of you to live for, this life will change *
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...
