"No Hard Feelings" lyrics

Swept Away Original Broadway Cast, The Avett Brothers, Adrian Blake Enscoe & Stark Sands Lyrics

"No Hard Feelings"
(from "Swept Away" soundtrack)

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

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, love in the words
Love in the songs they sing in the church
And no hard feelings

Lord knows they haven't done
Much good for anyone
Kept me afraid and cold
With so much to have and hold
Mm...

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 a 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 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 it's been to me

I have no enemies
I have no enemies
I have no enemies
I have no enemies
