All My Life
Joachim Lyrics

I've been keeping a close eye on This heart of mine
Joachim has been carefully monitoring his own feelings

I've been leaving the door barely open Just watching love come near Then walk by
Joachim has been hesitant about pursuing love, only allowing it to approach him briefly before letting it pass

But I just want to feel like crazy Love, maybe you're the one Who won't let me get away And I just want to hope That maybe you Can tell me what I feel And you feel the same
Joachim is eager to experience intense, passionate love and dreams of finding someone who will not let him slip away; he longs for mutual understanding and connection

Oh I'm just waking up, feeling sober From a night, that took us over You, me, and the whiskey We never left your room There were stars in our eyes Every heart beat hit on time You were with me I was yours and you were mine All night, all night, all night
Joachim recalls a night of intense physical and emotional connection with someone, when they were fully present with one another; he describes feeling a sense of harmony and belonging

Ooh, ooh, ooh, oh where were you Ooh, ooh, ooh, oh where were you All my life
Joachim wonders where this person has been all his life, as their connection feels transformative and life-changing

Have you ever been loved So hard, so fast, so strong Or do you only know lust Coming in quick, only taking Leaving scars
Joachim questions whether this person has ever experienced true, overwhelming love or if they have only known fleeting, superficial connections that have left them hurt

I just want to feel like crazy Love, maybe you're the one Who won't let me get away I just want to hope That maybe you Can tell me what I feel And you feel the same
Joachim reiterates his desire for all-consuming love with someone who will not let him go, and he hopes for mutual clarity and understanding

Oh I'm just waking up, feeling sober From a night, that took us over You and me in the backseat Of a car with a view There were stars in our eyes Every word spoke hung in time You were with me I was yours and you were mine All night, all night, all night
Joachim reminisces about another night of passion and emotional connection with this person, emphasizing how every moment felt significant and full of meaning

Ooh, ooh, ooh, oh where were you Ooh, ooh, ooh, oh where were you Ooh, ooh, ooh, oh where were you Ooh, ooh, ooh, oh where were you All my life
Joachim continues to express his amazement and gratitude for finding this person, wishing they had been in his life sooner
