Lyrics: There was a man who held the weight of the world on his shoulders It grew heavier as time moved on He never found a way to rid himself of the burden His body trembled as his last breath was drawn Muerte mi amor Muerte mi amor Muerte mi amor Muerte mi amor There was a woman whose love never ended Her life was full of happiness and bliss She wanted to live forever In the end, death blew her a final kiss Muerte mi amor Muerte mi amor Muerte mi amor Muerte mi amor There was a boy whose heart longed for affection He gave everything, all that he had He grew stronger and wiser with every day that passed by In the end, he welcomed death with no sense of being sad Muerte mi amor Muerte mi amor Muerte mi amor Muerte mi amor There was a girl who found a colorful flower Sought its beauty as hers to keep As she ripped its roots up from the ground, the earth cried out The flower limped and withered as she began to weep Muerte mi amor Muerte mi amor Muerte mi amor Muerte mi amor Ya no tengo miedo a la muerte Sólo espero que venga tranquilamente en la noche No tiene sentido temer lo inevitable Se mueve rápidamente sin sentido de rencor Muerte mi amor Muerte mi amor Muerte mi amor Muerte mi amor Letra en español: (adaptation, not literal) Había un hombre que cargaba con el mundo en su hombros y con el tiempo su dolor solo empeoro Nunca encontró una forma de deshacerse de ese peso su cuerpo tembló cuando su ultimo aliento expiro Death, oh my love Death, oh my love Death, oh my love Death, oh my love Había una mujer cuyo amor no conocía final su vida estaba llena solo de felicidad ella solo quería vivir por siempre y la muerte le ofreció un beso mortal Death, oh my love Death, oh my love Death, oh my love Death, oh my love Había un chico que solo quería amor y lo dio todo, todo lo que pudo dar se hizo sabio y fuerte con cada día que pasaba al final se fue sin dejar ninguna pena atrás Death, oh my love Death, oh my love Death, oh my love Death, oh my love Había una chica que hermosa flor encontró y su belleza a la chica enamoro al arrancarla del suelo la tierra lloro y ella la acompaño mientras la flor se marchito Death, oh my love Death, oh my love Death, oh my love Death, oh my love I am no longer afraid to die i just hope it comes peacfuly in the night it doesnt make sence to fear what cant be avoided it movest quickly without sense of resentment Death, oh my love Death, oh my love Death, oh my love Death, oh my love
My partner was buried a year ago today on Valentine's Day, her mother chose this day in spite of knowing what it'd be for me for the rest of my life. Thanks for posting this today of all days. 🏳️⚧️ 💔🌹
Saw a wonderful show in Sint Niklaas, Belgium. Loved Shawn's words before he started singing this. I lost my love Bart a couple of years back. I was holding part of his ashes with me yesterday at the concert and it made me tear up, but in a good way. Thank you Shawn! 🙏
@@GabrielEnriqueTamayoCaraveoyes and no death is all consuming while life those on occasion judge it's surroundings as in the manner of bad soil where life cannot take hold. However were in it does fine suitable footing it those tend to try and reach out as far as it may roam.
It feels illegal to be this early, especially when I only just found you, started with the thief and the moon and then this. So far there's been nothing but bangers
since the first day I heard your art with "trhough the valley" and "the thief and the moon", till nowadays, I still think you are one of the best artists. thank you for each song.
Clearly, this song hits Different . I had a rough year with many friends passing, and one the first time I heard this song, I can’t describe how I felt. for me James is probably the best songwriter out there today. His last album is absolutely fantastic. I’m very pleased to see him this Monday in paris. I’ll be travelling all the way from Casablanca just for that
I remember hearing you sing this on tour last year and it was so beautiful and haunting. It gave me chills just listening to it, even now after hearing it so many times. It’s such a beautiful song Shawn!
I could listen to you all day long.. oh wait.. that‘s what I‘m doing for about 3 years now.. Can‘t wait to see you live on March 1st in Vienna - Austria 😍✨
never seize to give me the chills!!!Bravo my dearest Shawn once again!!!European tour and the closest to Greece is UK....well,LOVE U anyway sea como sea😍😘
What an amazing video. Wow! I love the guitar. Translation of the fourth part. I am no longer afraid of death I just hope it comes quietly in the night There is no sense in fearing the inevitable. Move quickly without a sense of resentment
I've been teaching myself to sing for years now under you, I'm a secret apprentice if you will. Never dropped or song nor sang in front of anyone other than my girlfriend. She loves it, and I thank you for the lessons and beautiful music you've bestowed upon me 🫶
Enthralled by your voice and by your song, what a beautiful composition. Shawn you are exceptional and immensely gifted, thank you for sharing your talent with us.
I had a chance to see this before you released it in Toronto and I immediately fell in love with this song. It may be my new fav but its hard to choose between this and curse of the fold. I just have to say this song is amazing
Best Male singing voice ever
Agreed ❤
Mix voice!
I agree
Yes - Love his voice -command and control & outstanding arrangements 🔥🔥🔥

Facts
Lyrics:
There was a man who held the weight of the world on his shoulders
It grew heavier as time moved on
He never found a way to rid himself of the burden
His body trembled as his last breath was drawn
Muerte mi amor
Muerte mi amor
Muerte mi amor
Muerte mi amor
There was a woman whose love never ended
Her life was full of happiness and bliss
She wanted to live forever
In the end, death blew her a final kiss
Muerte mi amor
Muerte mi amor
Muerte mi amor
Muerte mi amor
There was a boy whose heart longed for affection
He gave everything, all that he had
He grew stronger and wiser with every day that passed by
In the end, he welcomed death with no sense of being sad
Muerte mi amor
Muerte mi amor
Muerte mi amor
Muerte mi amor
There was a girl who found a colorful flower
Sought its beauty as hers to keep
As she ripped its roots up from the ground, the earth cried out
The flower limped and withered as she began to weep
Muerte mi amor
Muerte mi amor
Muerte mi amor
Muerte mi amor
Ya no tengo miedo a la muerte
Sólo espero que venga tranquilamente en la noche
No tiene sentido temer lo inevitable
Se mueve rápidamente sin sentido de rencor
Muerte mi amor
Muerte mi amor
Muerte mi amor
Muerte mi amor
Letra en español: (adaptation, not literal)
Había un hombre que cargaba con el mundo en su hombros
y con el tiempo su dolor solo empeoro
Nunca encontró una forma de deshacerse de ese peso
su cuerpo tembló cuando su ultimo aliento expiro
Death, oh my love
Death, oh my love
Death, oh my love
Death, oh my love
Había una mujer cuyo amor no conocía final
su vida estaba llena solo de felicidad
ella solo quería vivir por siempre
y la muerte le ofreció un beso mortal
Death, oh my love
Death, oh my love
Death, oh my love
Death, oh my love
Había un chico que solo quería amor
y lo dio todo, todo lo que pudo dar
se hizo sabio y fuerte con cada día que pasaba
al final se fue sin dejar ninguna pena atrás
Death, oh my love
Death, oh my love
Death, oh my love
Death, oh my love
Había una chica que hermosa flor encontró
y su belleza a la chica enamoro
al arrancarla del suelo la tierra lloro
y ella la acompaño mientras la flor se marchito
Death, oh my love
Death, oh my love
Death, oh my love
Death, oh my love
I am no longer afraid to die
i just hope it comes peacfuly in the night
it doesnt make sence to fear what cant be avoided
it movest quickly without sense of resentment
Death, oh my love
Death, oh my love
Death, oh my love
Death, oh my love
As a native spanish speaker you make it sound so beautiful.
Thank you.
Ya no le tengo miedo a la muerte.

Thanks for posting this today of all days. 🏳️⚧️ 💔🌹
First Valentine's Day without mi amor. La Muerte took him almost a year ago.
Gracias Mr. James 💔
Thanks Shawn, my father-in-law just passed at 63 and me and my wife really needed to hear this.
Mr. Shawn James
Thank you for your music, thank you for your voice, thank you for your vibe, thank for this song, thank you for existing!
I love this song so much. I lost my boyfriend 2 years ago & this song just hits that spot so perfectly for me. Thank you for everything you do
i go to this cemetery sometimes to walk around and feel humbled at the decades of lives gone past.
You took a dark song and with your spectacular voice, turned it into a thing of beauty.
Saw a wonderful show in Sint Niklaas, Belgium. Loved Shawn's words before he started singing this. I lost my love Bart a couple of years back. I was holding part of his ashes with me yesterday at the concert and it made me tear up, but in a good way. Thank you Shawn!

Death Doesn’t Judge, Life Does.
Neither. Men judge. Death and life are faces of the same coin.
