This Is Not A Love Long (feat.
David Guetta Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's not a love song
It's not a love song
It's not a love song
It's not a love song
It's not a love song
It's not a love song

This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song

This is not a love song
Happy to have, not to have not
Big business is very wise
I'm crossing over into
Enterprise

This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song

I'm adaptable and I like mz new role
I'm getting better and better
I have a new goal
I'm changing my ways where money applies
this is not a love song

This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song

I'm going over to the other side
I'm happy to have not to have not
Big business is very wise
I'm inside free enterprise

This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song

Not television
Behind the curtain
Out of the cupboard
You take the first train
Into the big world
Are your ready to grab the candle
Not television, Not television
Behind the curtain
Out of the cupboard

This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song

This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song




This is not a love song
This is not a love song

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of David Guetta's "This Is Not A Love Song" are a commentary on the commodification of love and relationships. The repeated line "This is not a love song" emphasizes that the singer is not trying to romanticize their situation or look for love. Instead, they are focused on the practicalities of making money and achieving their goals in the world of business. The line "I'm changing my ways where money applies" suggests that the singer may have previously thought about love and relationships in a more traditional or idealistic way, but now sees money as the driving force behind their decisions.


The verses talk about the singer's transition into the business world, with lines like "I'm crossing over into Enterprise" and "I'm inside free enterprise." The reference to "Big business" being "very wise" implies that the singer is aware of the cut-throat nature of the business world and is willing to play by its rules. The bridge section, with its references to "Not television" and "Behind the curtain," could be interpreted as a nod to the artificiality and falseness of media representations of love and relationships.


Overall, "This Is Not A Love Song" seems to be a skeptical take on love and romance. The repeated refrain underscores the idea that the singer is not looking for love in their current situation; instead, they are focused on practical concerns like money and success.
