Love Is All
The Ratios Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Clap your hands y'all, it's alright)

If tomorrow is judgment day (Sing Mommy)
And I'm standing on the front line
And the Lord asks me what I did with my life
I will say I spent it with you

If I wake up in World War III
I see destruction and poverty
And I feel like I want to go home
It's okay if you're coming with me

'Cause your love is my love
And my love is your love
It would take an eternity to break us
And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us
'Cause your love is my love
And my love is your love
It would take an eternity to break us
And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us

If I lose my fame and fortune
And I'm homeless on the street
And I'm sleeping in Grand Central Station
It's okay if you're sleeping with me

As the years they pass us by
We stay young through each other's eyes
And no matter how old we get
It's okay as long as I got you baby

'Cause your love is my love
And my love is your love
It would take an eternity to break us
And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us
'Cause your love is my love
And my love is your love
It would take an eternity to break us
And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us

If I should die this very day
Don't cry, 'cause on Earth we weren't meant to stay
And no matter what the people say
I'll be waiting for you after the judgment day

'Cause your love is my love
And my love is your love
It would take an eternity to break us
And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us
'Cause your love is my love
And my love is your love




It would take an eternity to break us
And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us

Overall Meaning

The Ratios's song "Love Is All" is a beautiful tribute to the power of love. The lyrics speak of standing on the front line, facing World War III, and losing fame and fortune. No matter the obstacle, the singer proclaims that they will be okay as long as they are with their loved one. The lyrics emphasize the unbreakable nature of their love, stating that "it would take an eternity to break us," and referencing the historical significance of the Amistad slave ship and how even its chains couldn't hold them back. The song also touches on the idea that life on Earth is temporary and the promise of being reunited in eternity after death.


The song speaks to the deep connection and bond that can be shared between two people in love, and how that connection transcends time, place, and circumstance. The lyrics are a reminder that no matter what may happen in life, love can provide a sense of security, comfort, and purpose. The chorus of "your love is my love, and my love is your love" emphasizes the idea that true love is a mutual experience, and that it is the shared experience of love that makes it so powerful.
