Francesca Battistelli's song speaks of death not as an ending but as a beginning, using imagery of falling leaves, seeds, and flying away to convey hope in the afterlife. The lyrics affirm that physical death cannot hold the believer down, and that this life is merely a transition to something beautiful. The song references the classic hymn 'I'll Fly Away' and emphasizes resurrection and eternal hope.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
It's not what you think, there's more than you see
My body may fall, like leaves from a tree
So let the wind blow, cause I know where it goes, I will fly away
This is the spark, the start of something beautiful
This is the seed sown to usher the rise of hope
This is not the end, just where it all begins
Oh throw on your chains, they won't keep me down
And bury me deep, I'll get up from the ground
From dust I begin and to dust I ll return, so send me on my way
This is the spark, the start of something beautiful
This is the seed sown to usher the rise of hope
This is not the end, just where it all begins
Where it all begins
Where it all begins
Where it all begins
Some glad morning, when this life is over, I'll fly away
Some glad morning, when this life is over, I'll fly away
This is the spark, the start of something beautiful
This is the seed sown to usher the rise of hope
This is not the end, just where it all begins
Where it all begins
Where it all begins
Where it all begins
