All Your Love
Tori Martin Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Verse 1:
I could sit right here in my back porch chair and I'll be alright,
But it's a 100 times better being in your arms than alone tonight.
I wish you'd tell your friends that you have plans you just can't break,
And then you'd call my phone cause missing me is more than you can take.
Why can't it be that way?

Chorus:

I don't think I'm asking too much,
All I want is all your love.
By now you oughta understand,
(I just want you to be my man) 2x

Verse 2:
Got it stuck in my mind this picture of you and me so clear,
So tell me why am I underneath these stars with you not here?
You could come on over and take me out for a midnight drive,
Ooo it doesn't really matter where we go if you're by my side.
You'd be better off if you were mine.

Chorus:
I don't think I'm asking too much,
All I want is all your love.
By now you oughta understand,
(I just want you to be my man) 2x

Bridge:
I guess you thought I wasn't serious,
But you couldn't be more wrong.
There's only one small problem with us,
You've got me started falling for you but you're taking too long.

Chorus:
I don't think I'm asking too much, no,
All I want is all your love.

By now you oughta understand,
(I just want you to be my man) 3x
