All Time High
The Sam Willows Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I saw you
walked from the doorway
Never thought that you
would look my way
I saw you
closed door behind you
and now my heart bleeds
for you to stay

But somewhere in between our lives and all of time
We can say that we were one
and I was your and you were mine

Cause you're my all time high
You're my all time high
Cause you're my all time high
Cause you're my all time high

We're coming apart
Right where we started
Picking my heart
From off the floor
So come on let's go
Blast through the night
I'm looking at you for the rest of my life

Cause you're my all time high
You're my all time high
Cause you're my all time high
Cause you're my all time high

I'm losing you
broken bottles and everything
This is how we say goodbye

But somewhere in between our lives and all of time
We can say that we were one and I was yours and you were mine

Cause you're my all time high
Cause you're my all time high
Cause you're my all time high
Cause you're my all time high

I saw you
walked from the doorway
Never thought that you
would look my way
I saw you
closed door behind you




and now my heart beats
for you to stay

Overall Meaning

The Sam Willows's song "All Time High" is a love song about a relationship that is struggling to stay together. The lyrics are about the singer seeing someone they love walk through a doorway and realizing how much they want that person to stay with them. The singer feels like they are losing the person, and the relationship is coming apart. They are picking up the pieces of their broken heart from the floor, but they are also looking at the person they love for the rest of their life.


The song is a reflection on the ups and downs of a relationship, with the singer realizing that they have had their fair share of good times and bad times with this person. They know that they will always love the person and that they are their all-time high - the best thing that has ever happened to them.


The lyrics are emotive, and the music is equally atmospheric, with the slow melody creating a sense of longing and sadness. The beauty of the song is how the lyrics and the music combine to evoke a mood of lost love and deep longing.

@charmzmagic

i adore how sandra sings the heartbreak line in the beginning because her relationship is suffering while ben sings the falling in love line because he meets that girl but the TABLES TURN AT THE END AND THEY SWITCH LINES DAMN THAT'S CLEVER AF

@maryesthereliza

I like how each couple is experiencing different emotions at the same time, and that we can't tell if the scenario is going backwards or forward. Kudos to the producer and director especially, not easy to take scenes which can go both ways imo 👍🏻

Anddd then joel proceeds to slide into narelle's dms to comfort her and the rest is history
