Twelve hundred miles it's length and breadth that four square city stands It's gem set walls of Jasper shine they're not made by human hands One hundred miles it's gates are wide abundant entrance there With fifty miles of elbow room on either side to spare When the gates swing wide on the other side just beyond the sunset sea There'll be room to spare as we enter there There'll be room for you and room for me For the gates are wide on the other side where the fairest flowers bloom On the right hand and on the left hand  fifty miles of elbow room Sometimes I'm cramped and crowded here and I long for elbow room Now I long to reach for altitude where the fairest flowers bloom   It won't be long before I pass into that city fair With fifty miles of elbow room on either side to spare Oh when the gates swing wide on the other side just beyond the sunset sea There'll be room to spare as we enter there There'll be room for you and room for me For the gates are wide on the other side where the fairest flowers bloom On the right hand and on the left hand  fifty miles of elbow room

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque une ville majestueuse, construite de manière divine, qui offre un espace infini et la promesse d'un accueil chaleureux. On parle d'un vaste territoire avec des portes larges, où il y a de la place pour tous. L'artiste exprime un désir d'évasion d'un monde parfois oppressant, et aspire à rejoindre ce lieu paisible où fleurissent de belles choses. Ce morceau s'inscrit dans une quête spirituelle de liberté et d'ouverture, illustrant l'espoir d'une vie épanouie après la mort, dans un endroit qui semble représentatif du paradis. Les thèmes de l'accueil et de la prospérité spirituelle sont omniprésents, invitant chacun à se projeter vers un futur serein et lumineux.
