All The Way
CĂ©line Dion & David Foster 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 sea is
When somebody needs you (when somebody needs you)
It's no good unless he needs you (it's no good unless she needs you), all the way
Through the good or lean years
And for all the in between years, come what may (come what may)
Who know where the road will lead us
Only a fool would say (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
Taller than the tallest tree is
That's how it's got to feel
Deeper than the deep blue sea is
That's how deep it goes, if it's real
And when somebody needs you (when somebody needs you)
It's no good unless she needs you, all the way
Through the good or lean years
And for all the in between years, come what may (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
I'm gonna love you all the way
In "All The Way," Celine Dion and Frank Sinatra sing about the depths of love and the dedication required in a committed relationship. The first verse emphasizes the importance of loving your partner "all the way" and not just partially. Being near someone and cheering them up when they are down is only fulfilling if that support is given wholeheartedly. The next verse hones in on the intensity of real love, which must be as deep as the ocean and as high as the tallest tree. This genuine love is what makes it worthwhile to weather the ups and downs of life together, in the good times and the bad.
The chorus repeats the phrase "all the way" and underscores the idea that a relationship requires a full commitment to truly thrive. The second verse follows the same structure as the first but slightly changes the words from "he" to "she." This highlights that the song's message is meant for all couples, regardless of gender. The bridge addresses the uncertainty of life, acknowledging that the future is unknown, and no one knows where exactly their journey will lead them. But despite the uncertainty of the future, the singer assures their partner that they will love them "all the way" no matter what.

For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you, I'll be forever thankful, baby
You're the one who held me up, never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through, through it all
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith, 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am because you loved me
You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand, I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love, I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith, 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am because you loved me
You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark, shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies, you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith, 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am because you loved me
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith, 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am because you loved me
I'm everything I am because you loved me
I love you
