Is This Love
Bob Marley (Montmartre remix) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I want to love you
I want to love you, and treat you right
I want to love you, every day and every night

I want to love you, and treat you right
I want to love you, every day and every night

We'll be together, with a roof right over our heads
We'll share the shelter, of my single bed
We'll share the same room
Is this love, is this love, is this love
Is this love that I'm feelin'?

I want to love you, and treat you right
I want to love you, every day and every night
We'll be together, with a roof right over our heads
We'll share the shelter, of my single bed
We'll share the same room
Is this love, is this love, is this love
Is this love that I'm feelin'?

Is this love, is this love, is this love
Is this love that I'm feelin'?
I want to know, want to know, want to know now

Is this love, is this love, is this love
Is this love that I'm feelin'?
Is this love, is this love, is this love




Is this love that I'm feelin'?
I want to love you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Bob Marley & The Wailers's song "Is This Love?" are about the intensity of the singer's love for his partner, and his desire to treat them with respect and kindness. The lines "I want to love you, and treat you right / I want to love you, every day and every night" express this sentiment clearly. The song goes on to describe the couple's shared living arrangements and asks the key question, "Is this love that I'm feelin'?"


The verses suggest a deep intimacy between the two people, with the lines "We'll be together, with a roof right over our heads / We'll share the shelter, of my single bed / We'll share the same room." The repetition of the chorus reinforces the singer's need for reassurance that what he is feeling is indeed true love, and not just a fleeting infatuation. The song ends with the same question it began with, leaving the listener with the sense that the answer is not entirely clear.

If she's amazing, she won't be easy.
If she's easy, she won't be amazing.
If she's worth it, you won't give up.
If you give up, you're not worthy.
...
Truth is,
everybody is going to hurt you; you just gotta find the ones worth suffering for.

-Bob Marley

Thry tried to kill this man multiple times, assasins shot him, eventually it was "cancer"

Bullsht, it was probably poison, bruce lee too.... "cancer" his son? Shot from a real bullet filming a movie, they "forgot" to check the gun properly.....

Bruce and his family made Chinese mafia mad these are all easily googled facts by the way...

How you finna not check a gun on a massive movie stars movie set? Hows a real bullet make it on set?


Come on...

Kennedy and Marley? Probably CIA....
Marley started the first big black name in showbiz sure there were priors in jazz but Marley had the real rasta island real un American brainwashed black man...

And that scared them. Like Bruce scared his opponents. Epstein scared them. Theyre here. Watch what you say and do outside your homes as tempting as it is to be a revolutionist it has risks. At home? Defend it with physicality if need be. Practice striking offense and defence and wrestling offence and defence. I live in Toronto Canada no guns allowed only Gangsters carry them illegaly here so I leave long strong poles around the house......

A long life ia desire able. Healthy one. I'm not saying be a mute but find that balance of voice and defensiveness.

Bless. 100. ➕
