All We Do for Love
Benny Sings Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Why is it hard
To just get along
We try but we break our heads
But in my heart
I forget about
The things that lead to you

Why dont we start
To just get a long
I'll try no to make you sad
That we wont part
Just forget about
The things I said to you

All we do for love
Is it worth it
Can we prove its existance
All we do for love
Can we do it right
Like others do

Don't fall for stars (this verse is so me)
Is what you said to me
You smiled and you never left
No we're apart
And there's a lot of things
I can't admit to you

Ooh, is it so hard
To just fall in love
And fly over moonlights head
Lets make a start
And forget about
The things I did to you

All we do for love Is it worth it
Can we prove its existance
All we do for love




Can we do it right
Like others do

Overall Meaning

Benny Sings's song "All We Do for Love" uses an upbeat, funky tune to explore the conflicts, misunderstandings, and compassion that are a part of many romantic relationships. In the opening lines, the artist laments the difficulty of getting along, despite the best of intentions. This is a common experience, as relationships can be fraught with miscommunications, hurt feelings, and unresolved issues. However, the singer seems to believe that he can overcome these difficulties through the power of his own heart. He suggests that if he can forget about the things that cause conflicts, he and his partner may be able to start over and find common ground.


In the chorus, the artist asks a question that is central to the song: is all the effort that people put into love really worth it? Is love even real, or is it just a construct that people create and cling to? These questions are difficult to answer, but they are ones that many people grapple with in their own lives. The artist seems to feel that in order to truly understand the value of love, people need to be willing to work at it and do it right. He urges listeners to learn from their mistakes, to acknowledge their own faults, and to approach their relationships with compassion and understanding.


In the final verse, the artist reflects on the experience of losing a partner and the difficult process of trying to move on. He acknowledges the pain of separation and the things that he cannot say to his former partner. However, he remains optimistic and suggests that he and his partner can potentially find a way back to love, if they are willing to let go of the past and make a fresh start.
