All of the Night
Kelly Rowland Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Turn the lights on
In the middle of the bedroom
The kitchen or the hall way
It's gonna be a lot of leg room
And a little bit of foreplay
Getting out of it in the night time
Just tell me when you feel it
'Cause it's always a right time

For love, sometimes you got to do it, do it, do it
Don't talk too much just kiss him
Touch him but do it, do it,
All day like the radio

So wake me up
Keep me pumping
Like a song
It ain't nothing wrong
Make love, sweet love
With only nothing
Baby just turn the music on
And I'll be your favorite song

One and one we're having some fun
In the bedroom all day and all the night
Turn the lights on

It's going down like a basement
I love it when a beat drop
I'm sick of being patient
I'm screaming when the beat stops
Did you wanna do it all alone
Just catch it when I through it
I'm giving you my all love

You got to do it, do it, do it
Don't talk too much just kiss him
Touch him but do it, do it,
All day like the radio

So wake me up
Keep me pumping
Like a song
It ain't nothing wrong
Make love, sweet love
With only nothing
Baby just turn the music on
And I'll be your favorite song
One and one we're having some fun
In the bedroom all day and all the night

I don't need to impose
But what's the clothes for
This is the bedroom
And that's the closed door
I ain't trying to flex
But I'll be so yours
You'll be my lioness
And we can go wroarrr
No I'm just playing ma'
First class D you interested to stay by?
You interested to stay by
Only one go round
You need one more round
Left hand full of hair
Your cheek in my right palm
The type of sheet you can put your life on
Love at the door with the lights on
Even if they are you can still pull your on

So wake me up
Keep me pumping
Like a song
It ain't nothing wrong
Make love, sweet love
With only nothing
Baby just turn the music on
And I'll be up in your song

So wake me up
Keep me pumping
Like a song
It ain't nothing wrong
Make love, sweet love
With only nothing
Baby just turn the music on
And I'll be your favorite song

One and one we're having some fun
In the bedroom all day and all the night
One and one we're having some fun

In the bedroom all day and all the night
Turn the lights on

Line by Line Meaning

Turn the lights on
Get ready for some sexy time

In the middle of the bedroom
Anywhere in the bedroom is fine

The kitchen or the hall way
It doesn't have to be the bedroom

It's gonna be a lot of leg room
We'll have plenty of space to move around

And a little bit of foreplay
Gotta set the mood just right

Getting out of it in the night time
No need to rush

Just tell me when you feel it
We'll go at your pace

'Cause it's always a right time
There's no wrong time for love

For love, sometimes you got to do it, do it, do it
Sometimes you have to make the effort for love

Don't talk too much just kiss him
Actions speak louder than words

Touch him but do it, do it,
Physical touch is important for intimacy

All day like the radio
We can do this all day and night

So wake me up
Let's get started

Keep me pumping
Keep the passion going

Like a song
Our love is like a beautiful melody

It ain't nothing wrong
There's nothing wrong with expressing our love

Make love, sweet love
Let's make love and enjoy the sweetness of it

With only nothing
We don't need anything else but our love

Baby just turn the music on
Let's set the mood with some music

And I'll be your favorite song
Our love will be the perfect tune

One and one we're having some fun
Together, we'll have a great time

It's going down like a basement
Our love is about to get intense

I love it when a beat drop
The rhythm of our love is exciting

I'm sick of being patient
I can't wait any longer to express my love

I'm screaming when the beat stops
I never want this moment to end

Did you wanna do it all alone
We're in this together

Just catch it when I through it
Trust me and follow my lead

I'm giving you my all love
I'm giving you everything I have

You got to do it, do it, do it
Don't hold back, let's give it our all

No I'm just playing ma'
Just joking, don't take me too seriously

First class D you interested to stay by?
Do you want to stay with me?

Only one go round
Let's make this one count

You need one more round
One more time for good measure

Left hand full of hair
I'll hold onto you tightly

Your cheek in my right palm
I'll cradle your face with my hand

The type of sheet you can put your life on
Our love is strong and supportive

Love at the door with the lights on
Our love is welcoming and pure

Even if they are you can still pull your on
We'll make it work no matter what

One and one we're having some fun
Together, we're having a good time

Turn the lights on
Let's light up our love
