All I Want Is You
St. South Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Some things never change
Some things will remain
Yet I always hope and pray
That I could change the day
And maybe find a way
To make you come to me

Yesterday doesn't matter
Tomorrow you may not ever know (Tomorrow I just might be gone)
So listen to me now
As I try to say
That all I want is you today

If you only knew
What you put me through
You might not have gone away
Have you ever felt, even for a while
Something's missing in your life

Yesterday doesn't matter
Tomorrow you may not ever know (Tomorrow I just might be gone)
So listen to me now
As I try to say
That all I want is you today

That all I want is you today
If you don't need me anymore
Don't say it, if you don't love me anymore
Don't show it, because this life I have is short
So maybe you could try for now to love me again

Yesterday doesn't matter
Tomorrow you may not ever know (Tomorrow I just might be gone)
So listen to me now
As I try to say
That all I want is you today





All I want is you today

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of St. South's "All I Want Is You" portrays a sense of lingering emotions, where the singer seems to be holding on to a past love and longs for their former lover to return. The opening line, "Some things never change, some things will remain," suggests that although time has passed, certain things remain constant in the singer's life. However, the singer expresses the desire to change the course of events and find a way to make their lover come back to them. The repetition of the line "yesterday doesn't matter, tomorrow you may not ever know" reinforces the idea that the present is all that matters, and the singer's focus is on today.


The chorus is the most poignant part of the song, as it reveals the singer's vulnerability and desperation for their lover's return. The line "all I want is you today" echoes a simple, yet profound message of the singer's love and devotion towards their former partner. The subsequent lines, "if you only knew what you put me through, you might not have gone away," reveal that the separation was not mutual, and the singer was deeply hurt by the breakup, as they long for their partner to come back to them. The song concludes on a somber note, with the singer acknowledging that their time on earth is short, and they want their partner to love them again.
