All Of You
The Miles Davis Quintet feat. John Coltrane Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Something to make my heart beat the faster.
What did I long for? I never really knew.
Finding your love I've found my adventure,
Touching your hand, my heart beats the faster,
All that I want in all of this world is you.
[Chorus]
That makes the lonely winter seem long.
You are the breathless hush of evening
That trembles on the brink of a lovely song.
You are the angel glow that lights a star,
The dearest things I know are what you are.
Some day my happy arms will hold you,
And some day I'll know that moment divine,
When all the things you are, are mine!
The lyrics to the song "All The Things You Are" by The Miles Davis/Tadd Dameron Quintet describe a person's longing for adventure and love. The opening lines suggest a restless spirit that yearns for something to quicken one's pulse. And then we get a line that uncovers the motivation behind this desire, which is that the person is never really sure what they are looking for. However, they find what they've been seeking in the form of the love interest in their life.
The chorus of the song shifts its focus to describe the woman who has captured the singer's heart. The lyrics use the metaphor of the promise of springtime, that can bring hope and happiness to those who've suffered through a long and bleak winter. The woman is described as an "angel glow" that lights the way for the singer. The lyrics give the impression that the woman is the embodiment of everything that the singer has ever wanted. The song suggests that their love can conquer all obstacles and that, someday, they will be together.
Overall, the song weaves a romantic tale of a person's journey towards finding love and companionship. The lyrics are beautifully crafted, and the music is equally enchanting.
