Led Zeppelin - All My Love Lyrics Meaning

Zeppelin / All My Love
The song is about how loosing a child and how a couple can refocus on each other and still maintain love and life meaning despite the tragedy. "Should I fall out of love" (with my wife due to the pain of loss) "to chase a feather in the wind" (my deceased child). His wife helps him refocus ("one word my will to sustain") on having a meaningful yet grounded existence ("for me the cloth once more to spin"). They can cope with the loss of their son and still feel a sense of meaning in life. "Yours is the cloth, mine is the hand that sews time, his is a force that lies within". There is a shared purpose and they accept a spirit life ("feather in the wind") that moves on, but is still part of the complete whole. The couple feels complete even in their loss and the song ends with a positive musical modulation.
