My Love Mine All Mine

Mitski

About the song

“My Love Mine All Mine” by Mitski is a quiet and thoughtful song about love and how deeply personal it is. The singer looks up at the moon and wonders if her love can be sent there, to live on even after she’s gone. The moon becomes a symbol of something peaceful and eternal.

The lyrics talk about how the world doesn’t really belong to her, nothing is truly hers, except her love. It’s the one thing that can’t be taken, bought, or owned by anyone else. She holds onto it as something pure and real, something that defines her.

She also sings about someone special on Earth who helped her understand her heart. And when she’s gone, she hopes her love can still shine down, almost like a gift from the moon. It’s a soft reminder that love, even if quiet, can be strong and lasting.

Lyrics

Moon, a hole of light
Through the big top tent up high
Here before and after me
Shinin’ down on me

Moon, tell me if I could
Send up my heart to you?
So, when I die, which I must do
Could it shine down here with you?

‘Cause my love is mine, all mine
My love mine, mine, mine
Nothing in the world belongs to me
But my love, mine, all mine, all mine

My baby here on Earth
Showed me what my heart was worth
So when it comes to be my turn
Could you shine it down here for her?

‘Cause my love is mine, all mine
My love mine, mine, mine
Nothing in the world belongs to me
But my love, mine, all mine

Nothing in the world is mine for free
But my love, mine, all mine, all mine
