| U2 – Window in the Skies Lyrics

Bono said this song is about sexual redemption:
Fast forward to late December 2006. A friend called me on the phone and said, "Have you heard the new U2 song? It’s called ‘Window in the Skies.’ You’re not going to believe it." I typed the title into Google and listened with amazement. It’s a song about how Christ’s resurrection can redeem the sexual relationship. The chorus repeats the joyous refrain, "Oh can’t you see what love has done? Oh can’t you see what love has done, and what it’s doing to me?" Here is a sample of some of the verses:
The rule has been disproved
The stone it has been moved
The grave is now a groove
All debts are removed
The sky over our head
We can reach it from our bed
If you let me in your heart
And out of my head...
In the bridge, Bono echoes the joy of Eden - and one of the main themes of John Paul’s teaching - when he cries: "I’ve got no shame, oh no, oh no!" Then, admitting the many ways he has hurt his wife (Bono has been faithfully married to his high school sweetheart for nearly 25 years), he says, "But love left a window in the skies, and to love I rhapsodize." As the song ends, he offers the same hope "to every broken heart, for every heart that cries - love left a window in the skies."
So, has Bono been reading up on the theology of the body? Perhaps. Or, maybe as John Paul II himself emphasized, these are simply truths that find an echo in every human heart and Bono has tapped into it. |
