Intro: verse 1 When my body won’t hold me anymore And it finally lets me free Will I be ready? When my feet won’t walk another mile And my lips give their last kiss goodbye Will my hands be steady? When I lay down my fears My hopes and my doubts The rings on my fingers And the keys to my house With no hard feelings verse 3 When the sun hangs low in the west And the light in my chest Won’t be kept held at bay any longer When the jealousy fades away And it’s ash and dust for cash and lust And it’s just hallelujah And love in thoughts and love in the words Love in the songs they sing in the church And no hard feelings Lord they knows they haven’t done Much good for anyone Kept me afraid and cold With so much to have and hold verse 4 When my body won’t hold me anymore And it finally lets me free Where will I go? Will the trade winds take me south Through Georgia grain or tropical rain Or snow from the heavens? Will I join with the ocean blue Or run into the savior true And shake hands laughing And walk through the night Straight to the light Holding the love I’ve known in my life And no hard feelings Lord they knows they haven’t done Much good for anyone Kept me afraid and cold With so much to have and hold Under the curving sky I’m finally learning why It matters for me and you To say it and mean it too For life and its loveliness And all of its ugliness Good as its been to me I have no enemies I have no enemies I have no enemies I have no enemies

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque le moment où nos corps nous lâchent et où l'on doit faire face à la fin de notre existence. Elle interroge la préparation intérieure que l'on peut ressentir face à cette libération ultime, tout en réfléchissant sur les attachements de la vie, comme nos peurs et nos désirs. Elle parle de la possibilité de laisser derrière soi les rancœurs et les émotions négatives, pour embrasser l'amour et la paix intérieure au fil des années. L'artiste semble également souligner l'importance de la connexion spirituelle et de la rédemption, en imaginant une rencontre avec un Sauveur, où la joie et la lumière remplacent les douleurs du passé, prônant une vision de vie sans ennemis et pleine de compréhension.
