All Of My Love
Dread Zeppelin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To chase a feather in the wind
Within the glow that weaves a cloak of delight
There moves a thread that has no end.
For many hours and days that pass ever soon
The tides have caused the flame to dim
At last the arm is straight, the hand to the loom
All of my love,
All of my love,
All of my love to you now
The cup is raised, the toast is made yet again
One voice is clear above the din
Proud Aryan, one word, my will to sustain
For me, the cloth once more to spin
All of my love,
All of my love,
All of my love to you now
Yours is the cloth, mine is the hand that sews time
His is the force that lies within
Ours is the fire, all the warmth we can find
He is a feather in the wind
All of my love,
All of my love,
All of my love to you now
Sometime, sometime, sometime, sometime .. ooh
Hey hey hey.. hey hey hey
Ooh yeah
All of my love,
All of my love,
All of my love to you now
I get a little bit lonely,
Just a little, just a little
Just a little bit lonely, just a little bit lonely yeah..
The opening lines of the song, “Should I fall out of love, my fire in the light, to chase a feather in the wind, within the glow that weaves a cloak of delight,” suggest that the song is about a relationship that’s at risk of ending. The feather in the wind is a metaphor for something that is uncontrollable and fleeting, which could be interpreted as the singer’s feelings for the person he’s addressing. The “cloak of delight” could represent the sense of comfort and happiness that the relationship provides for him. The following lines, “There moves a thread that has no end,” could symbolize the interconnectedness between lovers, suggesting that even if the relationship ends, they will always be a part of each other’s lives in some way.
The second verse of the song starts with the lines, “For many hours and days that pass ever soon, the tides have caused the flame to dim, at last the arm is straight, the hand to the loom, is this to end or just begin?” This verse continues the metaphor of weaving and suggests that the relationship has gone through its ups and downs. The flame that has dimmed could symbolize the passion and intensity of their love, which has been affected by the passage of time. The phrase “is this to end or just begin?” suggests that the singer is uncertain about the future of the relationship.
The chorus of the song repeats the line “All of my love” three times, emphasizing the depth of the singer’s feelings for the person he’s addressing. The following lines, “The cup is raised, the toast is made yet again, one voice is clear above the din, proud Aryan, one word, my will to sustain, for me, the cloth once more to spin,” suggest that the singer is willing to make a fresh start and reaffirm his commitment to the relationship. The metaphor of the cup and the toast suggests a celebratory and optimistic tone, while the phrase “proud Aryan” has been controversial and divisive, with some suggesting that it has racist connotations.

Should I fall out of love, my fire in the light
If I stop loving you, my passion will die along with it
To chase a feather in the wind
To pursue a dream that might be impossible to catch
Within the glow that weaves a cloak of delight
Surrounded by a comforting brightness that brings joy
There moves a thread that has no end.
An eternal bond ties us together
For many hours and days that pass ever soon
Time flies as we remain together
The tides have caused the flame to dim
Challenges have weakened our love
At last the arm is straight, the hand to the loom
Finally, we channel our efforts to make things work
Is this to end or just begin?
Are we moving towards the end or starting anew?
The cup is raised, the toast is made yet again
We celebrate our love once more
One voice is clear above the din
Your voice is the only thing that matters in the noise
Proud Aryan, one word, my will to sustain
We stand together as a team
For me, the cloth once more to spin
It's my turn to carry on our relationship
Yours is the cloth, mine is the hand that sews time
You have the fabric that represents our love, I am the one who nurtures it
His is the force that lies within
An external power that strengthens us
Ours is the fire, all the warmth we can find
Our commitment is the only thing that keeps us going
He is a feather in the wind
We can't control all the external factors, but we can choose to stay together
Sometime, sometime, sometime, sometime .. ooh
Uncertainty still exists, but we don't give up
Hey hey hey.. hey hey hey
We will keep moving forward
Ooh yeah
Our love is powerful
I get a little bit lonely,
Sometimes I feel a bit lonely
Just a little, just a little
Just a tiny bit
Just a little bit lonely, just a little bit lonely yeah..
But I know we will overcome this together
All of my love,
All my love
All of my love,
All my love
All of my love to you now
I love you wholeheartedly
