You Are All
Kid Brothers Of St. Frank Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Something to make my heart beat much faster
What did I long for, I never really knew.
Finding your love, I found my adventure,
Touching your hand my heart beat much faster
All that I want in all of this world is you.
You are the promised kiss of springtime
You are the breathless hush of evening
That trembles on the brink of a lovely song.
You are the angel glow that lights the star,
The dearest things I know are what you are.
Someday my happy arms will hold you,
And someday I'll know that moment divine
When all the things you are, are mine.
These lyrics depict the feeling of longing for something exciting and meaningful, only to realize that the person you love is the adventure you were searching for. The phrase "Time and again I've longed for adventure, something to make my heart beat much faster" speaks to the audience's desire for more from life, and the subsequent line "what did I long for, I never really knew" denotes a lack of clear direction. However, upon finding the singer's love interest, the perspective changes: "finding your love, I found my adventure, touching your hand my heart beat much faster, all that I want in all of this world is you".
The second verse uses a number of poetic metaphors to describe the depth of affection that the singer has for their love interest. They describe this person as the "promised kiss of springtime" that brings an end to winter's loneliness, the "breathless hush of evening" that precedes a beautiful melody, and the "glow that lights the star" akin to that of an angel. The verse concludes with the singer saying that one day they will hold this person in their arms, and at that moment, they will know that they have everything they ever needed.
Overall, the song communicates a sense of yearning and longing for something special, but ultimately realizing that it's the love for another person that completes them. Through beautiful metaphors and a pleading, romantic melody, it's easy to get swept up in the emotion of the song and relate to the idea that love is the greatest adventure of all.

There are still a number of folks (old friends, acquaintances, and folks who never even heard of Rich) that get together to do this, though not all under the name of Legacy (which is now only in Wichita). A group is headed out to a reservation in SW Colorado next week for exactly this...
