You'll be given love
You'll be taken care of
You'll be given love
You have to trust it

Maybe not from the Sources
You have poured yours
Maybe not from the directions
You are staring at

So twist your head around
It's all around you
All is full of love
All around you

All is full of love
You just ain't receiving
All if full of love
Your phone is off the hook
All is full of love
Your doors are all shut
All is full of love
In any language

All is full of love, all is full of love
All is full of love, all is full of love

    General Comment:Death Cab failed to make this song their own. Of course, that is just my opinion.

    General Comment:I'm such an idiot. I thought Bjork was the one that did the cover of it. I much prefer this version though. Now I just feel silly. :D

    General Comment:Ok this is my interpretation of the meaning behind this song, which is influenced by a girl I know who has shut herself off from love because of being hurt in the past and this reminds me of her so here goes:
    ("You'll be given love
    You'll be taken care of
    You'll be given love
    You have to trust it")
    This is a song to give hope to those who think that love is not real and that it will never happen to them.
    Whether you want to believe it or not, love is real, it is all around us every day, you will experience it, you just have to have faith.
    ("Maybe not from the sources
    You have poured yours
    Maybe not from the direction
    You are staring at
    Twist your head around
    It's all around you
    All is full of love
    All around you")
    Love may not come from the person you have poured your heart and soul to, and maybe not the person you are expecting love to come from, but look around you, look at the people in your life, your close friends, your family, it is everywhere, its out there.
    ("All is full of love
    You just ain't receiving
    Your phone is off the hook
    Your doors are all shut
    (All is full of love)
    In any language
    All is full of love")
    If you close yourself off, of course it will be impossible to find, open up, and you will find love.

    General Comment:This song has made me cry. When you have no love from someone, and you friggin listen to this. You will cry when you have been betrayed.

    General Comment:absolutely haunting and beautiful:
    its about those who have given their best
    and received nothing but grief in return.
    it's about the breakdown of one's trust
    in humanity.
    its about having to go through all of this alone,
    then shutting out the world.

    that love is like air, all enveloping, all around and invisible. it's your right and it will love you , if you
    open your doors and let the love in.

    General Comment:No matter what, you will be loved; and you will have to trust the love that is given to you.
    Now, it might not be what you expect. You might stare in one direction, and pour all of your love into one person; but that doesn't mean that love will be returned. You might spend your life staring at one person, and the love you recieve may come from behind you, from someone you didn't even realize was standing there. because all is full of love.
    Now, if you want to lock yourself up, and take your phone off the hook because the one you love doesn't love you--go ahead, but you might miss the love that's meant for you.
    No matter how many ways I say it, Love is all around you, and you can't deny it.
    .f

    p.s. it sounds so much better the way DCFC says it...and that's why they're the songwriters.
