Monday Morning Church

Alan Jackson

Transposer:

INTRO You left your bible on the dresser So I put it in the drawer. ’Cos I can’t seem to talk to God Without yellin’ anymore. When I sit at your piano I can almost hear those hymns. The keys are just collecting dust But I can’t close the lid. You left my heart as empty As a Monday morning church. It used to be so full of faith Now it only hurts. And I can hear the Devil whisperin’; Things are only gettin’ worse. You left my heart as empty As a Monday morning church. The preacher came by Sunday And said he missed me at the service. He told me Jesus loved me But I’m not sure I deserve it. ’Cos the faithful man that you loved Is nowhere to be found. Since he took all that he believed Laid it in the ground. And left my heart as empty As a Monday morning church. It used to be so full of faith Now it only hurts. And I can hear the Devil whisperin’; Things are only gettin’ worse. You left my heart as empty As a Monday morning church. Well I still believe in Heaven And I’m sure you’ve made it there. But as for me without your love girl I don’t have a prayer. You left my heart as empty As a Monday morning church. It used to be so full of faith Now it only hurts. And I can hear the Devil whisperin’; Things are only gettin’ worse. You left my heart as empty As a Monday morning church. You left your bible on the dresser So I put it in the drawer.

La chanson évoque la douleur d'une séparation et le vide laissé par un être cher. Le protagoniste se rend compte que sa foi, autrefois solide, s'est estompée depuis cette perte, le laissant confus et désillusionné. Il tente de se rapprocher de Dieu, mais se sent incapable de prier, conscient que son cœur ressemble à une église délaissée le lundi matin, vide et abandonné. Les souvenirs d'une vie pleine de croyances et d'espoir sont désormais remplacés par une profonde tristesse et un sentiment d'abandon. Le contexte de la chanson reflète une perte personnelle, qu'elle soit romantique ou spirituelle, où l'absence de l'autre intensifie le sentiment de désespoir. Le personnage lutte pour retrouver une connexion avec sa foi, mais la présence du mal semble exacerber son chagrin, illustrant une lutte intérieure difficile.
