All The Love
The Outfield Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can't believe the things that happen to me
I guess that I should have seen a long, long time ago
Letters you write don't help me get through the night
So I'll just turn out the light
And sleep here all alone

All the love, all the love in the world
All the love, I'll be sending you girl
All the love
All the love in the world

Time after time I put my life on the line
But I ain't committed no crime, so take what you can find
Forget what I say 'cause I'll keep running away
I only live for today, but I'm one day behind

All the love, all the love in the world
All the love, I'll be sending you girl
All the love
All the love in the world

These are the words that I whisper on every first night
But that day you left me
Those words were on that same flight

I can't believe the things that happen to me
I guess that I should have seen a long, long time ago
Letters you write don't help me get through the night
So I'll just turn out the light
And sleep here all alone

All the love, all the love in the world
All the love, I'll be sending you girl




All the love
All the love in the world

Overall Meaning

The Outfield's "All The Love" is a song about unrequited love and heartbreak. The singer sings about how he has been deceived by the person he loves and how he feels alone and abandoned. He begins by saying he can't believe the things that have happened to him, which suggests that he has been disillusioned by the person he loves or the relationship he shared with that person. He then makes a reference to letters that the person has written to him, but they don't help him get through the night, so he turns out the light and sleeps alone. This shows the loneliness the singer is feeling and how those letters have done nothing to help him.


Throughout the song, the singer sings about how he has put his life on the line for the person he loves and how he feels he hasn't committed a crime by loving them. He talks about how he keeps running away from the person he loves and living just for today, but he's always one day behind. This suggests that he is always on the outside looking in, never fully involved or committed in the relationship.


Overall, "All The Love" is an emotional song that shows how love can sometimes cause heartbreak and loneliness. The lyrics speak to anyone who has experienced unrequited love or the pain of a broken heart.


Line by Line Meaning

I can't believe the things that happen to me
I'm so surprised by how things turned out for me


I guess that I should have seen a long, long time ago
I should have predicted this from a long time ago


Letters you write don't help me get through the night
Your letters don't comfort me at night


So I'll just turn out the light
I'll turn off the light


And sleep here all alone
And sleep all by myself


All the love, all the love in the world
I have so much love to give


All the love, I'll be sending you girl
I'll be sending you all my love


Time after time I've put my life on the line
I've risked my life several times


But I ain't committed no crime, so take what you can find
But I haven't done anything wrong, so just accept me for who I am


Forget what I say 'cause I'll keep running away
Don't listen to what I say, because I'll just keep running away


I only live for today, but I'm one day behind
I live in the moment, but I'm always behind everyone else


These are the words that I whisper on every first night
These are the things I say on every first date


But that day you left me
But when you left me


Those words were on that same flight
Those words were still on my mind
