Legend explained to Fuse: "The song is saying things that balance each other out: even when I lose, I'm winning; my head's under water, but I'm breathing fine; I give you all of me, you give me all of you. At the same time as you're giving everything up, you're gaining everything, and that's what the whole song is about. If you're in love and you connect, then even when you're giving things up, you're gaining so much from it."
This moving ballad finds John Legend returning to his piano-driven roots. The heartwarming ode to loving someone else, like many of the other Love in The Future tracks, is addressed to the singer's fiancée Chrissy Teigen. All of me loves all of you All your perfect imperfections Love your curves and all your edges "The overwhelming sensibility is one of optimism," Legend told BBC News about Teigen's influence on the album. "She's definitely affected my songwriting."
John Legend told Digital Spy that the first time he sang this song to Chrissy Teigen, she cried.
