All the Way
Monty Alexander Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's no good unless he loves 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 see is
When somebody needs you
It's no good unless he needs you, all the way
Through the good or lean years
And for all the in between years, come what may
Who know 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
Monty Alexander's song All The Way is a romantic ballad that speaks to the depths of love and the essential role it plays in a relationship. The first verse begins by noting that when someone loves another person, it has to be "all the way." This means that half-hearted love is not enough. When someone truly loves another person, they love them completely and unconditionally. The second line of the verse speaks to the importance of being there for someone when they need you, as well. Love is not just about the fun times; it's about supporting each other through all of life's ups and downs.

When somebody loves you
When someone truly loves you
It's no good unless he loves you, all the way
It's not enough unless they love you completely and unconditionally
Happy to be near you
I am thrilled to be close to you
When you need someone to cheer you, all the way
I will be there for you whenever you need me, through thick and thin
Taller than the tallest tree is
My love for you is expansive and limitless
That's how it's got to feel
That's how true love is supposed to be
Deeper than the deep blue sea is
My love for you goes far beyond what is visible, it's profound and immeasurable
That's how deep it goes, if its real
When love is genuine, it goes incredibly deep
When somebody needs you
When someone truly needs you
It's no good unless he needs you, all the way
It's not enough unless they need you entirely, without reservation
Through the good or lean years
During the good and the bad times
And for all the in between years, come what may
And for every moment in between, regardless of what happens
Who know where the road will lead us
We can't predict where the future will take us
Only a fool would say
Only someone foolish would claim to know for sure
But if you'll let me love you
But if you allow me to love you
It's for sure I'm gonna love you, all the way
I can promise that I will love you wholeheartedly and unconditionally, forever
All the way
Completely, entirely, without reservation
