About This Track

The eleventh track on 'Lemonade', 'All Night' arrives as a moment of resolution after the album's catalogue of betrayal and rage. Written by Beyoncé alongside Diplo, Ilsey Juber, and a handful of collaborators, the song was co-produced by Diplo, Beyoncé, and Henry Allen. Where earlier tracks on the record confront infidelity head-on, this one extends forgiveness, Beyoncé singing of trading broken wings and baptising tears, her torturer becoming her remedy.

The production leans reggae-tinged, a warmer palette than much of 'Lemonade', and the lyric settles into a refrain of physical reconnection and trust rebuilt over time. 'They say true love's the greatest weapon / To win the war caused by pain,' she offers, framing reconciliation not as surrender but as a kind of victory. The song's music video forms part of the 'Lemonade' film, which aired on HBO alongside the album's release in April 2016.

"All Night" is a single by Beyoncé, from the album Lemonade, released 22nd April 2016. The track is 5:22 long. It's filed under Pop. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 17 articles about Beyoncé.

Lyrics

All Night

Found the truth beneath your lies
And true love never has to hide
(True love never has to hide)
I'll trade your broken wings for mine
(Trade your broken wings for mine)
I've seen your scars and kissed your crime
(Seen your scars and kissed your crime)

So many people that I know, they just tryna touch ya
Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up
Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up on ya
Give you some time to prove that I can trust you again
I'm gonna kiss up, and rub up, and feel up
Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up on ya

All night long
Love, all night long
Sweet love, all night long
Sweet love, all night long
All I wanna, ain't no other
We together, I remember
Sweet love, all night long

Our love was stronger than your pride
Beyond your darkness, I'm your light, oh
If you get deep, you touch my mind
(If you get deep, you touch my mind)
Baptize your tears and dry your eyes
(Baptize your tears and dry your eyes)

So many people I know that they just tryna touch ya
Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up
Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up on ya
Give you some time to prove that I can trust you again
I'm gonna kiss up, and rub up, and feel up
Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up on ya

All night long
Love, all night long
Sweet love, all night long
Sweet love, all night long
All I wanna, ain't no other
We together, I remember
Sweet love, all night long

They say true love's the greatest weapon
To win the war caused by pain (pain)
But every diamond has imperfections
But my love's too pure to watch it chip away (chip a-, chip a-, chip away)
Boy, nothing real can be threatened
True love breathes salvation back into me
With every tear came redemption
And my torturer became my remedy

So many people I know that they just tryna touch ya
Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up
Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up on ya
Give you some time to prove that I can trust you again
I'm gonna kiss up, and rub up, and feel up
Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up on ya

All night long
Love, all night long
Sweet love, all night long
Sweet love, all night long
All I wanna, ain't no other
We together, I remember
Sweet love, all night long

How I missed you, my love
