All I Want Is You
Eternal Love's Plea: All I Want Is You by Betty Harris
Lyrics
All I want is you (wait a minute)
All the speaker desires is the presence of the person addressed
You know it feels so right (wait a minute)
The connection with the addressed person feels right
My love will last forever
Expressing a belief in eternal love
I want more more more
The speaker expresses a desire for more of something, possibly love
All I want is you (wait a minute)
Reiteration of the desire for the addressed person
You know it feels so right (wait a minute)
Emphasizing the rightness of the connection
My love will last forever
Reasserting the belief in everlasting love
I want more more more
Repetition of the desire for more
More and more and more
Intensification of the desire for more
Do it all for me
The speaker is willing to do anything for the addressed person
don't you let it be
An urging not to let something specific cease
I would give up my whole world just for you
Willingness to sacrifice everything for the addressed person
I guess I'm just a fool
The speaker acknowledges being foolish in love
Say you'll always care
Request for assurance of eternal care
Say you're really there
Request for confirmation of the presence and commitment of the addressed person
Say you'll give up your whole world just for me
Expressing a reciprocal willingness to sacrifice everything for the speaker
I love you can't you see
Declaration of love with a plea for understanding
All I want is you (wait a minute)
Reiteration of the desire for the addressed person
You know it feels so right (wait a minute)
Emphasizing the rightness of the connection
My love will last forever
Reasserting the belief in everlasting love
I want more more more
Repetition of the desire for more
All I want is you (wait a minute)
Reiteration of the desire for the addressed person
You know it feels so right (wait a minute)
Emphasizing the rightness of the connection
My love will last forever
Reasserting the belief in everlasting love
I want more more more
Repetition of the desire for more
More and more and more
Intensification of the desire for more
Now you really know
Confirmation or assertion of information previously shared
Yeah I told you so
Confirmation of a previous statement about sacrifice
I would give up my whole world just for you
Willingness to give up everything for the addressed person
Now you say that's pretty cool
Positive acknowledgment of the speaker's sacrifice
Will it always be?
Pondering the longevity of a particular situation
Always you and me
Asking for confirmation of a lasting connection between the speaker and the addressed person
Would you be my sun up in the sky?
Proposal for a metaphorical role of the addressed person in the speaker's life
Baby you can get my high
The addressed person has the potential to elevate the speaker's emotions
All I want is you (wait a minute)
Reiteration of the desire for the addressed person
You know it feels so right (wait a minute)
Emphasizing the rightness of the connection
My love will last forever
Reasserting the belief in everlasting love
I want more more more
Repetition of the desire for more
All I want is you (wait a minute)
Reiteration of the desire for the addressed person
You know it feels so right (wait a minute)
Emphasizing the rightness of the connection
My love will last forever
Reasserting the belief in everlasting love
I want more more more
Repetition of the desire for more
More and more and more
Intensification of the desire for more
All I want is you!
A final declaration of the sole desire for the addressed person
