We
Reeves Dianne Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We may never meet again
Before we go
Make this moment live again
We won't say goodbye
Until the last minute
I'll hold out my hand
And my heart will be in it
For all we know
This might only be a dream
We come and we go
Like the ripples, like the ripples in the stream
So baby, love me, love me tonight
Tomorrow was made for some
Oh, but tomorrow
But tomorrow may never, never come
For all we know
Yes, tomorrow may never, never come
For all we know
These lyrics from the song 'For All We Know' by Reeves Dianne are a reflection of a fleeting moment in time where two people may cross paths but may never see each other again. The opening verse speaks to the notion that life is unpredictable and that opportunities, like this one, may never arise again. There is a sense of urgency in the lyrics as the singer implores her lover to make this moment live again, recognizing that their chance encounter may be the only time they spend together. The lyrics suggest that goodbyes should be delayed as long as possible, to savor the last remaining moments together.
The second verse of the song continues with the theme of life's unpredictability, speaking to the idea that everything we experience is transitory, like ripples on the stream. The singer emphasizes the importance of seizing the moment and loving each other tonight, as tomorrow may never come. The lyrics end with a powerful repetition of the phrase 'for all we know,' emphasizing the theme of the uncertainty of life, and that we can never truly know what the future holds.
Line by Line Meaning
For all we know
Considering the uncertainty of our situation
We may never meet again
It's possible that we will never cross paths again in the future
Before we go
Prior to leaving this moment, this place, this occasion
Make this moment live again
Revitalize this present moment into a memorable experience
We won't say goodbye
We will not bid farewell to each other
Until the last minute
Up until the final seconds before we separate
I'll hold out my hand
I will extend my hand outwards
And my heart will be in it
It will be a heartfelt gesture of affection
This might only be a dream
Perhaps this is nothing more than a mere fantasy
We come and we go
We arrive and depart from different stages of life
Like the ripples, like the ripples in the stream
Our presence is fleeting, like the ever-changing waves in a river
So baby, love me, love me tonight
Embrace this moment and cherish our affection tonight
Tomorrow was made for some
The future is uncertain and unknown for all, but hopefully tomorrow will be positive for someone
Oh, but tomorrow
Although tomorrow is unknown
But tomorrow may never, never come
There's no guarantee that tomorrow will ever come
Yes, tomorrow may never, never come
There's endless potential that tomorrow may never occur

I had the pleasure of conducting business with Ms. Reeves in 2007 and I told her that I had been a fan for a very long time. I mentioned this album to her amazement. She informed me that George Duke was her cousin, small world!
