For All Time
Aly & Fila Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Was so in love with you
I spent my life with you
At least it was that way in my mind
But was I good enough
Could I be strong enough
To be your lover in real life

Can we go back in time
Remember when the stars above for us would shine
If you could see me now
It’s that I’ve tried my best and you would be so proud

I will remember for all time
Even though your gone you’re still mine
I will remember for all time
That I will always love you for all time
For all time

I found across the miles
On all your posts and smiles
That I could find myself so lost within your eyes
But were you strong enough
And were you brave enough
To be my lover in this life

Can I go back in time
And somehow bring you back and breathe you into life
If I could see you now
I would take you in my arms and say just how

I will remember for all time
Even though your gone you’re still mine
I will remember for all time




That I will always love you for all time
For all time

The bridge signifies the singer's realization that things are not going to change, no matter how far they go or how long they stay awake, ending with the acceptance that it is time to move on once and for all.


The song is a soulful blend of electronic beats and nostalgic lyrics, making for a captivating and bittersweet listening experience.
