For All We Know
Carr Vikki Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Strangers in many ways
We've got a lifetime to share
So much to say
And as we go on from day to day
I'll feel you close to me
But time alone will tell
I knew you well
For only time will tell us so
And love may grow for all we know
Love, look at the two of us
Strangers in many ways
Let's take a lifetime to say
I knew you well
For only time will tell us so
And love may grow for all we know
The lyrics of Carr Vikki's song "For All We Know" depict two strangers who are deeply in love and have a lifetime to share. The song is a contemplation about how little we truly know about others, and how over time, our love for someone can grow and deepen with the experiences we share together. The lyrics tell us about a bond between two people who are still strangers in many ways but are willing to give each other's lifetime to learn about each other.
The song emphasizes the importance of taking time to find out about one's partner, to get to know them deeply, before making assumptions about them. It hints at the possibility that love may grow over time, although there is no guarantee that it will. This assurance of love's potential growth in a relationship, expressed by the lyrics, "And love may grow for all we know," is what makes this song valuable, and it has helped cement the track as a classic love song.
