Body
Various Artists Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I want to live where soul meets body
And let the sun wrap its arms around me
And bathe my skin in water cool and cleansing
And feel, feel what its like to be new

Cause in my head there's a greyhound station
Where I send my thoughts to far off destinations
So they may have a chance of finding a place
where they're far more suited than here

I cannot guess what we'll discover
We turn the dirt with our palms cupped like shovels
But I know our filthy hands can wash one another's
And not one speck will remain

I do believe it's true
That there are roads left in both of our shoes
If the silence takes you
Then I hope it takes me too
So brown eyes I hold you near
Cause you're the only song I want to hear
A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere

Where soul meets body
Where soul meets body
Where soul meets body

I do believe it's true
That there are roads left in both of our shoes
If the silence takes you
Then I hope it takes me too
So brown eyes I hold you near
Cause you're the only song I want to hear
A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere
A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere




A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere
A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere

Overall Meaning

The song "Bodies" by Various Artists - Radical Records speaks of the desire to experience true connection and freedom. The opening lines illustrate the desire to escape from the mundane, to live in a place where the soul and the body intersect, suggesting a place or environment that invites both spiritual and physical wellness. The desire to be embraced by the sun and to be bathed in cool and cleansing water symbolize the idea of purification, renewal, and rejuvenation.


The second verse, on the other hand, portrays the struggle of the mind, the difficulty of finding one's rightful place. The image of a greyhound station is reminiscent of the idea of travel, of leaving, and of saying goodbye. The metaphor suggests a longing to escape and find a place where one's thoughts are more at peace. The idea of turning dirt with one's palms is a symbol of cultivating one's own path, but with the need for assistance, as "our filthy hands can wash one another's."


The chorus expresses the belief that both parties have something to learn from each other as they journey together, and that even in silence, they can connect on a deeper level. The repeated line "Where soul meets body" reflects the central theme of the song, which is the desire to connect, to find a place where the physical and the spiritual can intersect.


Line by Line Meaning

I want to live where soul meets body
I desire to reside in a place where my soul and my physical body are in perfect harmony


And let the sun wrap its arms around me
I want to experience the warmth of the sun as if it is embracing me


And bathe my skin in water cool and cleansing
I wish to wash my body in cool and fresh water, purifying my skin


And feel, feel what its like to be new
I want to experience a sense of rejuvenation, to feel refreshed and renewed


Cause in my head there's a greyhound station
My mind is like a bus station, where thoughts come and go


Where I send my thoughts to far off destinations
I let my thoughts travel to distant places


So they may have a chance of finding a place
I hope my thoughts will find a suitable place to reside


where they're far more suited than here
a place where they belong more than where they are at present


I cannot guess what we'll discover
I am unsure of what we will find in our journey


We turn the dirt with our palms cupped like shovels
We use our hands to dig and move the dirt, as if using shovels


But I know our filthy hands can wash one another's
Even though our hands may be unclean, we can still help cleanse each other


And not one speck will remain
We will be able to completely wash away any speck of dirt and impurity


I do believe it's true
I have faith that this is a fact


That there are roads left in both of our shoes
We both have paths to travel, and our journey is not yet over


If the silence takes you
If you are ever lost or silent


Then I hope it takes me too
I want to be there with you, even if it means being lost too


So brown eyes I hold you near
I want to be close to you, my beloved with brown eyes


Cause you're the only song I want to hear
I only want to listen to your voice and be with you


A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere
Your voice is like a sweet melody that floats gently in my surroundings


Where soul meets body
This is the place where my soul and body are in perfect harmony


A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere
Your voice continues to fill the air with its beauty


A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere
The melody is still gently present and surrounds me


A melody softly soaring through my atmosphere
This beautiful, soothing melody will linger in my surroundings
