All the Way
101 Strings Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's no good unless he loves you, all the way
Happy to be near you
When you need someone to cheer you, all the way
Taller than the tallest tree is
That's how it's got to feel
Deeper than the deep blue see is
When somebody needs you
It's no good unless he needs you, all the way
Through the good or lean years
And for all the in between years, come what may
Who know where the road will lead us
Only a fool would say
But if you'll let me love you
It's for sure I'm gonna love you, all the way, all the way
The song "All the Way" by 101 Strings Orchestra is a romantic ballad about the depth and commitment of love. The opening line, "When somebody loves you," sets the tone for the entire song, which is essentially a series of declarations about what it means to truly love someone. The lyrics suggest that love is not enough in and of itself; rather, it must be "all the way" to truly be complete. The singer emphasizes the importance of being there for someone through good times and bad, and of committing to a relationship no matter what the future may hold.
The imagery used in the song is particularly striking. The reference to being "taller than the tallest tree" is a powerful metaphor for the incredible height that love can reach. Similarly, the line about being "deeper than the deep blue sea" suggests that love is not only vast, but also mysterious and unfathomable. The song also acknowledges the unpredictability of life and the uncertainty of where the road may lead, but insists that a deep and abiding love can overcome any obstacle.
