Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Is your love
How deep is your love
Is your love
How deep is your love
How, oh, how
How deep is your love
Oh, how's your love
Been all day thinkin', all night wonderin'
Why love has to change
You kiss me, but it's not real
Tell me what happened

Are we living a lie, baby
Is that magic gone
Ooh, do you feel the same way you used to, girl
Ooh, tell me is it wrong for us to love like this

How deep is your love (How deep is your love)
How deep is your love (How deep is your love)
How deep is your love (How deep is your love)
Oh... Ho... Oh... Oh... (How deep is your love)

You run your fingers through my hair
You tell me you love me
You act like everything between us is alright, girl
But you know, you know that it's not true

You love me or do you wanna leave me, baby
Tell me, girl, I can take it
Something's just not right, I don't know, no
Tell me how deep is your love

(I love you) I love you
(I love you) I love you
Whoa... Whoa... Oh... Oh...
(I love you) I love you, love you, love you
Oh, yes, I do, my baby
(Shooby dooby doo) Shooby dooby do it up (Shooby dooby doo)
Do it up, do it up, do it on up, babe
(Do it on up) Mmm, mmm
Shooby dooby dooby doo wop, baby
That means I love you, darlin'
I just can't figure you out, baby
One minute I think you love me, and then next one I think you don't
I don't understand it
Woo... Hoo... Ooh... Hoo... Ooh... Ooh... Hoo... Ooh... Ooh...
I'm just goin' insane tryin' to figure you out, baby
How deep is your love




I wanna know, you got to tell me, baby
Hoo... Hoo... Ooh... Ooh... Ooh... Ooh... Ooh... Ooh... Ooh... Ooh...

I know your eyes in the mornin' sun
I feel you touch me in the pourin' rain
And the moment that you wander far from me
I wanna feel you in my arms again

And you come to me on a summer breeze
Keep me warm in your love, then you softly leave
And it's me you need to show
How deep is your love?

How deep is your love? How deep is your love?
I really mean to learn
'Cause we're livin' in a world of fools
Breakin' us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me

I believe in you
You know the door to my very soul
You're the light in my deepest, darkest hour
You're my saviour when I fall

And you may not think I care for you
When you know down inside that I really do
And it's me you need to show
How deep is your love?

How deep is your love? How deep is your love?
I really mean to learn
'Cause we're livin' in a world of fools
Breakin' us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me

Na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na, na-na-na-na

And you come to me on a summer breeze
Keep me warm in your love, then you softly leave
And it's me you need to show
How deep is your love?

How deep is your love? How deep is your love?
I really mean to learn (I really mean to learn)
'Cause we're livin' in a world of fools
Breakin' us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
(Na-na-na-na-na)

How deep is your love? How deep is your love?
I really mean to learn
'Cause we're livin' in a world of fools
Breakin' us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
(Na-na-na-na-na)

How deep is your love? How deep is your love?
I really mean to learn
'Cause we're livin' in a world of fools
Breakin' us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me

May 20th is the anniversary of Robin's death.
You're now an angle in heaven with the most beautiful voice.
The world has lost one of the greatest singer songwriters on earth.
We miss your voice.
We miss your smile.
We miss your charm.
Bee Gees for ever in our soul.
Andy, Maurice and Robin - RIP.
God bless Barry.

Bee Gees - How Deep Is Your Love (LYRICS):

Iknow your eyes in the morning sun
I feel you touch me in the pouring rain
And the moment that you wander far from me

I wanna feel you in my arms again

And you come to me on a summer breeze
Keep me warm in your love, then you softly leave
And it's me you need to show

How deep is your love
How deep is your love, how deep is your love

I really mean to learn
'Cause we're living in a world of fools
Breaking us down when they all should let us be
We belong to you and me

I believe in you
You know the door to my very soul
You're the light in my deepest, darkest hour
You're my savior when I fall

And you may not think, I care for you
When you know down inside that I really do
And it's me you need to show

How deep is your love
How deep is your love, how deep is your love
I really mean to learn
'Cause we're living in a world of fools
Breaking us down when they all should let us be
We belong to you and me

And you come to me on a summer breeze
Keep me warm in your love, then you softly leave
And it's me you need to show

How deep is your love
How deep is your love, how deep is your love
I really mean to learn
'Cause we're living in a world of fools
Breaking us down when they all should let us be
We belong to you and me

How deep is your love, how deep is your love
I really mean to learn
'Cause we're living in a world of fools
Breaking us down when they all should let us be
We belong to you and me

How deep is your love, how deep is your love
I really mean to learn
'Cause we're living in a world of fools
Breaking us down when they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
