All My Tomorrows/All The Way
Michael Feinstein Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Except for just a dream or two
But I've got lots of plans for tomorrow
And all my tomorrows belong to you
Right now it may not seem like spring at all
We're drifting and the laughs are few
But I've got rainbows planned for tomorrow
No one knows better than I
That luck keeps passing me by, that's fate
But with you there at my side
I'll soon be turning the tide, just wait
As long as I've got arms that cling at all
It's you that I'll be clinging to
And all the dreams I dream, beg or borrow
On some bright tomorrow they'll all come true
And all my bright tomorrows belong to you
When somebody loves you
It's no good unless he love you all the way
Happy to be near you
When you need someone to cheer you all the way
Taller than the tallest tree is
That's how it's got to feel
Deeper than the deep blue sea is
That's how deep it goes if it's real
When somebody needs you
It's no good unless they need you all the way
Through the good or lean years
And for all the in between years, come what may
Who knows where the road will lead us
Only a fool would say
But if you'll let me love you
It's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way, all the way
Who knows where the road will lead us
Only a fool would say
But if you'll let me love you
It's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way, all the way
And all my bright tomorrows belong to you
In Michael Feinstein's song All My Tomorrows/All The Way, the lyrics express hope and optimism for a future that will be filled with love and happiness. The first verse talks about how the singer may not have much in the present, but they have dreams and plans for the future that revolve around their love interest. They believe that all of their tomorrows will belong to this person. The second verse continues this sentiment, acknowledging that things might not be perfect currently, but they have faith that things will get better with their loved one by their side.
The chorus (which is actually two choruses from different songs) brings in the idea that true love means loving someone "all the way." It's not enough to just be with someone when things are good, or when they need cheering up - it's about being there for every moment, both good and bad. The lyrics describe this kind of love as being "taller than the tallest tree" and "deeper than the deep blue sea," making it clear that it's an all-consuming, all-encompassing love that requires a lot of dedication.
Overall, the song is about holding onto hope and faith in the face of uncertainty, and believing that a brighter future awaits as long as they have each other. The lyrics reflect a sense of deep commitment to their partner, with promises to love them through the good and the bad and for all of their tomorrows.
