What if everything you always took for granted was gone
And everything you ever thought was right was wrong
And what if everyone you ever loved was torn
From the pages of your life
Would you reach out for tomorrow or try to turn back time

Refrão:
These open arms will wait for you
These open arms can pull us through
Between what's left and left to do
These open arms
These open arms
These open arms
Will wait for you

Did you really love the ones you said you'd love, that's right
And did you make a damn of difference in somebody else's life?
Tell me, is there someone you can count on when you need a friend?
Can't you see I need a friend?

Repete refrão

Can you live in your skin? Walk in your own shoes?
You can't win if you don't know how to lose
Crawl, fall, try, you gotta learn how to fly

These open arms will wait for you
These open arms can pull us through
Between what's left and left to do
These open arms
These open arms
These open arms
These open arms
These open arms
Will wait for you
