This Love
Craig Armstrong & Elizabeth Fraser Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This love is a strange love
In that it can lift a love
This love
This love
I think I'm gonna fall again
And ever when you held the hand
This love
Now rehearsed we stay, love
Doesn't know it is love
This love
This love
Doesn't have to feel love
Doesn't care to be love
It doesn't mean a thing
This love
This love loves love
It's a strange love, strange love
This love
This love
This love is a strange love, strange love
I'm gonna fall again love
Doesn't mean a thing
Think I'm gonna fall again
This Love
The song "This Love" by Craig Armstrong feat. Elizabeth Fraser speaks about the complexities and enigmatic nature of love. The first few lines of the song, "This love is a strange love, in that it can lift a love," suggest that love has the power to bring people up higher than they ever thought possible. The following lines, "I think I'm gonna fall again, and ever when you held the hand and turn 'em in your fingers, love," indicate that despite the happiness that love brings, it also involves a certain degree of vulnerability and the possibility of heartbreak.
The verses that follow continue to explore the intricacies of love. The line "Now rehearsed we stay, love, doesn't know it is love" suggests that even when people are in love, they may not recognize it. Additionally, the line "Doesn't have to feel love, doesn't care to be love" implies that love doesn't necessarily have to be experienced in the same way by everyone, and may not always be a top priority. The repetition of "This love" throughout the song drives home the point that love is a complex and multifaceted emotion that can be difficult to define or understand.

Tahle láska
Tahle láska je neobyčejná láska
Uvadnula jemnost
Tahle láska
Tahle láska
Myslím, že znovu padnu
A někdy, když jsi mě držel za ruku
Nic to neznamená
tahle láska
Tahle láska
Zkoušeli jsme teď zůstat, lásko
Neví, je to láska
Tahle láska
Tahle láska
Nemusíš cítit lásku
Nepotřebuješ být milován
Nic to neznamená
Tato láska
Tahle láska miluje lásku
Je to neobyčejná láska, neobyčejná láska
Tahle láska
Tahle láska
Tahle láska je neobyčejná láska, neobyčejná láska
Znovu se zamiluju
Nic to neznamená
Myslíš, že znovu padnu
Tahle Láska

Years ago I fell in love with a man who wasn't really able to love...or to love me. How many times I listened to this song, feeling this pain in my heart, knowing I would never find a Happy end with him. And still I could not let him go. Now I am married, and when I think back to these times and listen to this song, I can still re-feel this heart ache...i think when you really love someone, he never leaves your heart totally...

To me this song is only truly going to be understood by a select few. For me it describes a twin flame love. For others it can represent something else. (If you’ve never heard of that before, look it up. It’s intriguing) ..it represents the paradoxical feeling that transcends through love. It’s amazing how one emotion could either be your saving grace or you’re destruction. Ironically it’s not the emotion to blame, It’s us. Ive learned that we have to find the balance and know when to hold on tight and when to release. Until you’ve experienced the pain of wanting to love someone to death but also wanting them to be free then you can’t feel this song the way it’s meant to be felt. It’s the beauty that love can bring, and the sorrow losing it can cause.

I have a twin flame, yeah this song can apply to a twin flame love but I think it is more about one-sided relationships
