All That Matters
Portrait Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I make it home everynight, (baby)
I try to be on time
I've been working hard all day
You've been on my mind
I belong with you
We were meant to be baby
I build my future on
Everything we have yeah... yeah

You and me
Hand in hand
YOu and me
Until the end

All that matters to me baby
Is you and me
I'm coming home (to you)

You're all that matters to me baby
Don't won't nobody else
I'm coming home... to you

You keep my head up high baby
When I'm down...
And when you rub my back
It feels like I'm heaven bound
Were barely making ends meet
But never does our love skip a beat




I'm so into you lady, the feelings oh so good,
So good, so good...

This song is a 7+ stars classic for so many reasons : music intro , harmonies , the music , the voices ,the lyrics and so on . It is 1 of my 100 top slow jams classic of all times . This group was so underated back then but gets its props nowadays thanks to the internet . I had this song on one my slow jams tapes in heavy rotation in the '90 when I was in lovemaking mode and I was always inspired and in the mood for some encore with my girlfriend of the moment πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒ
