All the Love You Got Lyrics


I sit and wonder where you’re gone
Have you found a head to ground that stays under when you push it down?
I sit and ponder what went wrong
Was I too emotional?
Too many puzzles for your simple soul
Does she let you sleep
When she’s awake

Does she close her eyes and pay the asking price
Does she suffer with the smile
Take a penny for a song and it’s all
Part of loneliness drinks the honey of your promises
Does she know that’s All the Love You Got
That’s all the love you got
Does she know that’s all the love you got

And tell me does it feel the same
Is she close enough to hurt
When she takes it does it make it worse
Can you still kill a perfect day
With a twinkle in your eye
Do you still awake when she’s asleep

Does she close her eyes and pay the asking price
Does she suffer with the smile
Take a penny for a song and it’s all
Part of loneliness drinks the honey of your promises
Does she know that’s all the love you got
That’s all the love you got

When she let's you lead away
Does she want it when she’ll get there if you get there

Does she close her eyes and pay the asking price
Does she suffer with the smile
Take a penny for a song and it’s all
Part of loneliness drinks the honey of your promises
Does she know that’s all the love you got
That’s all the love you got
Does she know that’s all the love you got

All the love you got
Does she know that's all the love you got
That's all the love you got
Does she know that's all the love you got
That's all the love you got

All the Love You Got
  • This breakup anthem was released as the lead single from Diane Birch's second album, Speak A Little Louder. The dynamic backbeat was provided by bassist John Taylor of Duran Duran and drummer Questlove of the Roots. "I heard that demo, and it was irresistible," Taylor told The New York Times. "I just thought, 'I've got to get on this fantastic song one way or the other.'"
  • The entire song – including Questlove and John Taylor's contributions – was built on a demo that Birch recorded in one afternoon, nailing her vocals in a single take. Producer Eg White, who has worked with Adele and Joss Stone, improvised the guitar parts. "He was just experimenting," Birch recalled to American Songwriter magazine. "He had a half-eaten bagel hanging out of his mouth and one sock tucked into his jeans, and he was sort of laughing while he improvised this part on the fly. But his guitar wound up sounding so special. You can't replicate that. Something really does happen during the first take – that's where the magic is."
