All That Matters
Estelle Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I could pick, a single moment
To tell you how I felt right into the blue
And I would tell, the time my heart felt
And I would probably say that it was a quarter to two

The time was nice, but it was far spent
You sent me flying then we both agree that time became the enemy
Of moments, I'm holding on to the next one

And if the sun should go away from here
It don't matter, 'cause with you I shine
And if these clouds, keep you from coming near
It don't matter, you're already mine

And that's all that matters, that matters, that matters
It wouldn't matter, 'cause baby you're mine
And that's all that matters, that matters, that matters
No one can take away what's yours and mine

If there's a name, for our type of story
I call it the days of our lives the age of a star and a guy
So built to last (to last), beyond glamor and glory
So easy to do, so easy to be, connected inside
I get to put (i get to put), his thing right by my now
It's kind of cold to give your all or nothing to
Someone who makes you love in these moments
Keep rolling on to the next one

Oh and if the sun should go away from here
It don't matter, 'cause with you I shine
And if these clouds, keep you from coming near
It don't matter, you're already mine

And that's all that matters, that matters, that matters
And that's matter baby you're mine
And that's all that matters, that matters, that matters
No one can take away what's yours and mine

Who makes love like this anymore
Instant enduring your eyes still alluring my love
Won't let you go
Holds us together through stormier weather
It's gold, it's gold and so and so if the sun

Should go away from here
It don't matter, 'cause with you I shine
And if these clouds, keep you from coming near
It don't matter, you're already mine

And that's all that matters, that matters, that matters
And that's all matter you already you're mine
And that's all that matters, that matters, that matters
No one can take away what's yours and mine

And now we sit




And wonder where life went
From all the moments I missed, I'm glad I didn't miss you

If I could pick, a single moment
If I could choose just one moment to express my feelings


To tell you how I felt right into the blue
To express my emotions without any hesitation


And I would tell, the time my heart felt
I would talk about the moment when I felt happiest


And I would probably say that it was a quarter to two
I remember the exact time when my happiness was at its peak


The time was nice, but it was far spent
Although that moment was special, it has passed now


You sent me flying then we both agree that time became the enemy
We both acknowledge that time can make the most beautiful moments disappear


Of moments, I'm holding on to the next one
I'm looking forward to the next moment that we can share together


And if the sun should go away from here
Even if everything else fades away


It don't matter, 'cause with you I shine
Your love makes everything bright and beautiful


And if these clouds, keep you from coming near
Even if there are obstacles in our relationship


It don't matter, you're already mine
Our love is strong enough to overcome any challenge

It's effortless for us to be in sync and connect emotionally


I get to put (i get to put), his thing right by my now
I get to have him by my side always


It's kind of cold to give your all or nothing to
It's difficult to give everything to someone who may not reciprocate


Someone who makes you love in these moments
Someone who makes you feel loved in every single moment


Keep rolling on to the next one
Keep moving forward and cherishing every moment


Who makes love like this anymore
It's rare to find a love as pure and true as ours


Instant enduring your eyes still alluring my love
After all this time, I still find myself captivated by your mesmerizing gaze


Won't let you go
I'll never let you go, no matter what


Holds us together through stormier weather
Our love holds us together through tough times and we come out stronger on the other side


It's gold, it's gold and so and so if the sun
Our love is invaluable and shines bright like gold


And now we sit
As we reflect on our journey together


And wonder where life went
We can't believe how quickly time has passed


From all the moments I missed, I'm glad I didn't miss you
Although we may have missed out on many experiences, I'm grateful that we found each other
