    LYRICS I will always love you how I do Let go of a prayer for you It's a sweet word The table is prepared for you Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh Wishing you godspeed, glory There will be mountains you won't move Still I'll always be there for you How I do I let go of my claim on you It's a free world You look down on where you came from sometimes But still you'll have this place to call home always Glory, glory, glory, glory This love will keep us from blinding of the eyes Silence in the ears, darkness of the mind This love will keep us from blinding of the eyes Silence in the ears, darkness of the mind This love will keep us from blinding of the eyes Silence in the ears, darkness of the mind This love will keep us from blinding of the eyes Silence in the ears, darkness of the mind

    The first time I heard this version, it took my breath away. So beautiful. Reminds me of how my dad felt about my mom when he finally decided to give her the divorce she wanted after 20 years of marriage. But he never stopped loving her. He was always there for her til the day he passed away. His love was forever.

    I didn't know what the word 'godspeed' meant before listening to this song on repeat. After many times of listening to and reciting this song, I'd decided to look up the definition. Godspeed is an expression of good wishes to a person starting a journey. I often think of this song. It's essentially the song that forever remains on my heart. I feel as though its God speaking to me, wishing me well on the next journey of the day and reminding me that his love sustains even through the toughest times. Thank you, James. Godspeed.

    Produced, arranged, and keyboards by James Blake as well as interpolating his song "always". Blurred lines. Oftentimes, many aren't credited due to legal issues or whatever. Kanye didn't credit much for YEEZUS & then had loads on TLOP. John Mayer has stepped in on numerous radio hits without written credit due to his preference. Picture isn't clear-cut.

    Obviously, James's singing on this track is phenomenal, but I'm blown away by his piano playing as well. Those bass notes he plays at 2:22 and sustains throughout the rest of the song are brilliant; they add this cacophony and darkness that wasn't on the original. It adds a whole different dynamic to the song.

    Listening to this…I close my eyes with tears…The old me is dead never to be brought back..the old me tells the new me Godspeed. Sometimes we get so stuck in our old unhappy selves that we don’t realize we are making it harder for the butterfly 🦋 to be released from the cocoon. It’s like a funeral 😔 and a birthday party 🥳 of the mind. The wonderful world of depression and anxiety. But I am ready to welcome the new healthy me. 🙏🏾 Godspeed to anyone out there that is fighting the battles of the mind 🙏🏾

    I lost my Father 10/24/2020. My soul cracked. I heard this song by accident one night just scrolling through songs on KZread. My 1-year-old son stopped walking and playing turn around and ran back to me where I was holding my phone. He was mesmerized by the opening I will always love you. I was holding a picture of my father and my son felt the picture frame was a phone so he kissed my father's picture. Tears of pain and joy overtook me. Every night since that day I have played this song with my son gets done with his bath we sit down on my bed listen to this song and talk to my dad's picture. Thank you so much for this song it means the world to me. Trying to type this through tears. God bless you and God bless anyone who's going through something right now that this song helps. Sincerely, James Cabán Semper Fidelis

    The B section ("This love will keep us from blinding...") was for me a revelation, listening to James. I immediately recognized it when he began to sing but I'd never known the actual words listening to the distorted samples in the original. Even in my not knowing, the song as a whole resonated so, so deeply with me. I held onto it and let it, like a lot of blonde, be half mystery to me. I guess I left it alone for long enough. Those lyrics have found me feeling like my life is asking me to be blind and deaf to people I love. I cried and cried. Many, many thanks to Mr. Blake and to all the people who liked this video so that it showed up in my feed. I hope you all are living your best!

    I know this song means different things for different people. Mostly people who have had a close relative pass away. Not that mourning the dead is easier but mourning the living is just….different. I immediately thought of my ex of almost a decade while listening to this and it helped bring me a lot of peace. His lyrics describe what I never could. Especially the last words. So to anyone struggling to let someone you may still love deeply go, just think of it as a different kind of love. A distant one. One that’s better for both of you to have peace.
