For All We Know
Embracing Moments: Love and Uncertainty in Gloria Lynne's 'For All We Know'
Lyrics
For all we know
Expressing uncertainty about the future.
We may never meet again
Acknowledging the possibility of not meeting again.
Before we go
Before parting ways or facing an unknown future.
Make this moment live again
Desiring to make the current moment memorable and alive.
We won't say goodbye
Committing to avoiding farewells until the very end.
Until the last minute
Delaying goodbyes until the final possible moment.
I'll hold out my hand
Extending a gesture of support or connection.
And my heart will be in it
Emphasizing sincere emotional involvement.
For all we know
Reiterating the uncertainty of the future.
This might only be a dream
Considering the present as possibly fleeting or unreal.
We come and we go
Reflecting on the transient nature of life.
Like the ripples, like the ripples in the stream
Drawing parallels between life and the continuous flow of a stream.
So baby, love me, love me tonight
Expressing a plea for immediate affection and love.
Tomorrow was made for some
Highlighting the uncertainty of the future, suggesting enjoying the present.
Oh, but tomorrow
Contrasting the present with an uncertain future.
But tomorrow may never, never come
Emphasizing the unpredictable nature of what lies ahead.
For all we know
Repeating the theme of uncertainty and impermanence.
Yes, tomorrow may never, never come
Underlining the idea that tomorrow may never arrive.
For all we know
Summarizing the overarching theme of uncertainty and the importance of cherishing the present.
