All My Love Lyrics

Should I fall out of love, my fire in the light
To chase a feather in the wind
Within the glow that weaves a cloak of delight
There moves a thread that has no end.

For many hours and days that pass ever soon
The tides have caused the flame...

    Zeppelin / All My Love
    The song is about how loosing a child and how a couple can refocus on each other and still maintain love and life meaning despite the tragedy. "Should I fall out of love" (with my wife due to the pain of loss) "to chase a feather in the wind" (my deceased child). His wife helps him refocus ("one word my will to sustain") on having a meaningful yet grounded existence ("for me the cloth once more to spin"). They can cope with the loss of their son and still feel a sense of meaning in life. "Yours is the cloth, mine is the hand that sews time, his is a force that lies within". There is a shared purpose and they accept a spirit life ("feather in the wind") that moves on, but is still part of the complete whole. The couple feels complete even in their loss and the song ends with a positive musical modulation.

    Je crois que cette histoire ( aussi triste et douloureuse qu'elle peut être) n'a jamais été exprimée, expliquée et démontrée) alors il est plutôt important de faire la distinction entre les spéculations et la réalité et le pourquoi du mensonge et ou de la vérité.

    Karak Plant died of leukemia, he came back as a girl so it seems, like evidence that life can make it in the end.

    True love has no conditions. Love is a power above separation. If the one you love can not be with you physically, your love for them can live in your heart.
