"All My Life" is a song written by American singer-songwriter Karla Bonoff and originally performed by Bonoff on her album New World (1988). The following year, American singers Linda Ronstadt and Aaron Neville performed the song as a duet on Ronstadt's 1989 album Cry Like a Rainstorm, Howl Like the Wind.

The duet version was released as a single in early 1990 and became a hit, reaching number one on the US Billboard Adult Contemporary as well as number 11 on both the Cash Box Top 100 and the Billboard Hot 100 charts. It was also a top-10 hit in Canada and Ireland, peaking at number 10 in both countries. "All My Life" won the award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal at the 1991 Grammy Awards.
