"A truly rich man is one whose children run into his arms when his hands are empty". - Unknown Author
Anyone can be a father, but to be a Daddy takes a special person. A man can sire a child and call him self a father, but a Daddy is the light of a small childs life. A Daddy loves his children unconditionally. In the middle of the night, in the early morning, during the breakfast insanity, the lunch time madness, the afternoon boredom, the missed nap crankiness, the pre dinner rush, the bathtime chaos, and the bedtime "I'm not tired"'s. A Daddy is the protector that chases away the boogie man and the monster that lives under the bed. A Daddy is the strong arms that holds a weeping child while kissing the scraped knee all better. A Daddy has a warm chest that soothes a baby to sleep. A Daddy is the torturer who tickles the children until they bounce off the ceiling. A Daddy is the holder of hands while a little girls tries on her first pair of roller skates, and runs behind a little boy holding the bike steady till he's ready to peddle by himself. A Daddy is devoted to his children and will do anything to keep them safe and warm and fed. I'm lucky to live with the Best "Daddy" in the world.
This is for my children's Daddy, because I know how much it means to him. I love you Nick.
Well I just heard the news today
It seems my life is gonna change
I closed my eyes, began to pray
Then tears of joy streamed down my face
(chorus)
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, Ill take her by my side
We stand in awe, we've created life
(chorus)
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
That 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
This Daddy is the Hero to his daughters and sons- they love him beyond anything else.
