We're All In Love
B. R. M. C. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'll keep it in my head till I know I
Until I know that I can leave your doorstep
Until I know the conversations cold
I'll hide it in the words until I know I
Until I know that I can be alone here
Until I know the consequences known

We're all in love with something that we can't see
We're all in love with something that we can't see
I'm in love with something that we can't see
I'm in love with someone that we can't see

I'll throw you out and bring you back later
Everything I see's a complication
Everyone I known has come and go
I've fallen in the reason for the passion
Everyone needs something for their hands when
When they know they're gonna be alone

We're all in love with something that we can't see
We're all in love with something that we can't see
I'm in love with something that we can't see
I'm in love with someone that we can't see

I'm looking for something to shout
Something I know I cannot doubt
I'm looking for something to shout
Something I know I cannot doubt
Come on won't help me out

We're all in love with something that we can't see
We're all in love with something that we can't see
I'm in love with something that we can't see
I'm in love with someone that we can't see

I'm in love without you
I'm in love without you
I'm in love without you
I'm in love without you

We're all in love with something that we can't see
We're all in love with something that we can't see




I'm in love with something that we can't see
I'm in love with someone that we can't see

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in "We're All In Love" by B. R. M. C. showcases a deep sense of love and passion that the singer is hiding. We see a speaker who is not ready to disclose their emotions until they are certain of their decision. The first verse gently alludes to the singer's plan to keep his feelings secret until he is sure of what he wants. "I'll keep it in my head till I know that I can leave your doorstep" implies that the singer has something on their mind that concerns their relationship. They want to ensure that whatever that they have to say is well-worded with zero chance of misunderstandings. The next verse continues in the same vein, with the singer needing to conceal any emotions until they know what they want to do.


The chorus, "We're all in love with something that we can't see" implies that sometimes we can fall in love with someone without any physical constraints. The next line, "I'm in love with someone that we can't see" could mean that the singer is in love with the idea of someone, as opposed to the person themselves. The second verse looks at the singer's relationships as a whole, with everybody stepping in and out, yet the singer is still chasing the same passion. The final verse looks introspectively at the singer, as they need something to "shout" or express their emotions finally. With a brilliant mix of imagery and an unusual structure, this song is a heartfelt exploration of the feelings that surround love, longing, and passion.
