With arms wide open (Creed)

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

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

This song is about personal insecurities and fears (that's what I heard when singer explained it to the public) and I have to confess that I like this song, I don't know, the music and the lyrics, that mixture makes the song a special one and a hymn to me ( and other people I suppose).

Enjoy!

Lullaby

Hush my love now don't you cry
Everything will be all right
close your eyes and drift in dream
rest in peaceful sleep

If there's one thing I hope
I showed you
Hope I showed you
Just give love to all

oh my love... in my arms tight
Every day you give me life
as I drift off to your world
will rest in peaceful sleep

I know there's one thing that
you showed me
that you showed me
just give love to all
let's give love to all

In days like today I'd like to have somebody (I don't know, a friend, relative or my mum) singing this song and trying to convince me that everything is ok... that I'm not alone and that every cloud has a silver lining...

You're beautiful

My life is brilliant
my love is pure
I saw an angel
of that I'm sure

She smiled at me on the subway
But I won't lose no sleep on that
'Cause I've got a plan

You're beautiful
You're beautiful
You're beautiful
It's true
I saw your face in a crowded place
And I don't know what to do
'Cause I'll never be with you

Yeah' she caught my eye
as we walked on by
she could see from my face that I was
fucking high
and I don't think that I'll see her again
but we shared a moment that will last till the end

You're beautiful
You're beautiful
You're beautiful
It's true
I saw your face in a crowded place
And I don't know what to do
'Cause I'll never be with you

You're beautiful
You're beautiful
You're beautiful
It's true
There must be an angel with a smile on her face
when she thought up that I should be with you
But it's time to face the truth
I'll never be with you

I like this song very much... it's really beautiful, and tells us things that are true... I can't understand why life is cruel when I find someone... he liked me very much, but we would never be together because there was something that separated us... the only thing that could have made me happy, has gone... oh! pity me!

Everybody hurts

When the day is long, and the night
the night is yours alone
when you are sure you've had enough of this life
well, hang on

Don't let yourself go
everybody cries
everybody hurts
sometimes

Sometimes everything is wrong
now it's time to sing along
When your day is night alone (hold on, Hold on)
if you feel like letting go (hold on)
when you think you've had too much of this life
well hang on

'cause everybody hurts
take comfort in your friends
everybody hurts
don't throw your hand, oh no
don't throw your hand

If you feel like you're alone
no, no, no
you're not alone

If you're on your own in this life
the days and nights are long,
when you think you've had too much of this life
to hang on

Well, everybody hurts sometimes,
everybody cries a
and everybody hurts sometimes
and everybody hurts sometimes, so hold on,
hold on
everybody hurts, you're not alone

I always listen to this song on the radio, but I never realize the main topic of it. A now that I know I could say that it is very beautiful... I really don't know how to explain it, because the lyrics are so clear! Maybe it tells things that everybody knows, but mix it with the music, and it is a real hymn for those who feel sad and depressed, for those who are so good and think that they suffer all their lives ( But that is not true!!)

Well... an advice, when you feel that everything is wrong... just turn on the radio and listen to this song, maybe your life won't change, but for some minutes you would think that you're not alene as you think

Forgive me

Can you forgive me again
I don't know what I said
But I didn't mean to hurt you

I heard the words come out
I felt that I would die
It hurt so much to hurt you

Then you look at me
You're not shouting anymore
You're silently broken

I'd give anything now
To kill those words for you

Each time I say something I regret I cry " I don't want to lose you"
But somehow I know that you'll never leave me

Cause you were made for me
Somehow I'll make you see
How happy you make me

I can't live this life
Without you by my side
I need you to survive

So stay with me
You look in my eyes and I'm screaming inside that I'm sorry

And you forgive me again
you're my one true friend
and i never meant to hurt you

Well, I listened to this song last week, while I was checking my mp3s... and when I listen to a song, the first thing that calls my attention is the music, rather than the lyrics... and I felt very sad the first time I heard this song... and when I understood what was the main topic of "forgive me" it was worst...

Sometimes I have to admit that I'm a person that says things without thinking them, and after saying them, I regret because I have hurt somebody I love... the worst thing of all, is that, most of the time I don't know what to say to ask for forgiveness... have you experienced the same? What have you done?
