All The Way
Susan Wong Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When somebody loves you
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 sea is
That's how deep it goes - if it's real

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 knows 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

Taller than the tallest tree is
That's how it's got to feel
Deeper than the deep blue sea is
That's how deep it goes - if it's real

And when somebody needs you
It's no good unless she needs you
all the way
Through the good or lean years
And for all the in-between years
come what may

Who knows 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





I'm gonna love you all the way

Imagine - Susan Wong - Lyrics

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

Musical Interlude

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
Nothing to kill or stifle
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
