Is This Love
Aalia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Is this real
Is this real
What I'm feeling deep inside
How can I hide
When it's everywhere
Every little breath
I take I feel

I did't cause
I didn't call
Can't deny
That it's been out of my hand


A blue bird in my heart
why do you try to get it out
it's sad
it's sad to know you

(Humming)

don't take out my blue bird
it only knows how to stay dark
don't spoil
it shouldn't hurt no more


have I ever
have i ever
touched your soul
like you have
mine


How can I hide
When it's everywhere
Every little breath I take I feel


I did't cause
I didn't call
Can't deny
That it's been out of my hand

it's wild as the ocean
that I only knew how to watch
not to have one as my emotion

the voice that calms me
Repeated




that only embraces me
hmm hmm

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Aalia's song "Is This Love" are about the intense emotions of love and how it can be difficult to hide or ignore those feelings. The opening lines "Is this real, What I'm feeling deep inside" show the uncertainty that often comes with falling in love. Despite trying to resist or ignore the feelings, the singer can't help but notice love is everywhere they go, with every breath they take.


The lyrics refer to a "blue bird" in the singer's heart, which can be interpreted as a metaphor for their feelings of love that they don't want to lose or let go of. The line "why do you try to get it out" may be directed towards someone or something trying to remove those feelings from the singer's heart.


The repetition of the lines "I didn't cause, I didn't call, can't deny that it's been out of my hand" emphasize the uncontrollable and unexpected nature of love. Despite not seeking it out, the singer cannot deny its presence in their life.

Just my personal interpretation of this song (and a desperate try to get over this couple :'):

Vin and Chayeong began mainly as business partners who have the same enemy and then, with time, their relationship evolved into a good friendship.
At some point, however, it became clear that they developed something that went beyond a normal friendship - something they felt "deep inside", but couldn't name exactly.
The subtle process of them falling for each other wasn't part of their plan and happened completely unintentionally - thus, the lyrics "I didn't cause, I didn't call".
Still, they can't restrain themselves - it's "out of their hand" that their feelings are growing stronger. They can't be denied nor hidden anymore.
The "blue bird" could be a metaphor for their love for one another whilst also symbolizing sadness and nostalgia (bc of the color).
Vin and Chayeong are longing to be closer to each other, but they are well aware of the heartbreaking truth that they can never be truly together as they live in two seperate worlds.
The line "why do you try to get it (the blue bird) out" refers to their unrealistic, but relatable wish to overcome the distance between the two of them which they know they can't.
Their love is meant to be cherished in their hearts - that's why it's both sad and beautiful that they've met.

Absolutely Agree 👍👍👍

@aadyarana3181

Did anyone notice that in the 13th ep in the pool scene where vincenzo and his gang were splashing water on that man while he was handcuffed...if you notice that handcuffs, you will get to see that they are the fluffed one's...and y'all probably knows when they are used😎
