All I Want
Rain Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

All I Want Is

We could turn around and walk away from this pain
And try to fight the battles that we made today
I could melt away into the grave without you
Just try to make it through another day Just don't go away

All I want is to be here with you

All I want is
All you want from me is something new
All I want is

You had a dream that I was dreaming of you
I had a dream that all this dreaming came true

All I want is to be here with you
All I want is
All you want from me is something new
All I want is you
Do you want me to stay or just go away
You know I can't live without you
All I want is to be here with you

All the tears and the words that we said
You know I can't live without you
Should I try or just say goodbye
All I want is you

We could turn around and walk away
Walk away

All I want is to be here with you
All I want is
All you want from me is something new
All I want is you
Do you want me to stay or just go away
You know I can't live without you
Do you want me to try or just say goodbye you know
All I want is you
All I want is you
All I want is

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Rain's song "All I Want" revolve around the idea of feeling lost and incomplete without someone. The singer of the song opens with an admission that walking away from a painful situation is a possibility, but he still wants to be with the person he's addressing. He emphasizes this desire throughout the song by repeating "All I want is to be here with you." He then contrasts this desire with the other person's desire for something new - maybe their relationship has lost its spark or he has failed to fulfill her needs.

The song's imagery is dreamlike, which makes sense given the repeated references to dreaming. The singer describes a dream that the other person had of him, and a dream he had where all their dreaming came true. This suggests that their relationship might only be good in their dreams - again, highlighting the contrast between his desire to stay and her desire for something new.

The chorus repeats as a plea from the singer to the other person, even adding the question of whether the other person wants him to stay or go. Both the repetition of the chorus and the pressure for an answer suggest that the singer is desperate to not lose this person. The song's final lines suggest that walking away is still a possibility, leaving the song's conclusion uncertain.
