I’m All for You
Billie Holiday Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let our friends say what they want to say
If I'm wrong I'll be the one to pay
No matter if it's true
You'll find that I'm all for you

Let the cards predict we'll drift apart
And the stars forfeit of broken heart
No matter it they do
You'll find that I'm all for you

I only know come what may
You'll always find me by your side
I may be a fool
Time alone will decide

Let them all say that it's just a game
And I'm sure to lose




But just the same no matter if I do
You'll find that I'm all for you

As Time Goes By - Anna Nalick - Lyrics

You must remember this
A kiss is still a kiss
A sigh is just a sigh
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by

And when two lovers woo
They still say, "I love you"
On that, you can rely
No matter what the future brings
As time goes by

Moonlight and love songs, never out of date
Hearts full of passion, jealousy, and hate
Woman needs man, and man must have his mate
That no one can deny

It's still the same old story
A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die
The world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by

Musical Interlude

Moonlight and love songs, never out of date
Hearts full of passion, jealousy, and hate
Woman needs man, and man must have mate
That no one can deny

It's still the same old story
A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die
The world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by
