Is This The Love That I Need?
FLU Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Love over pleasure
I just can't seem to believe
Could there be a fine line
In romance and good times
Is this the love that I need?
I just can't figure out
But I just can't give it up
Cause every time I'm caught between those eyes
All I can see is loving you
But then
Do you really know just
How do you measure
Love over pleasure
I just can't seem to believe
Could there be a fine line
In romance and good times
Is this the love that I need?
Why can't I understand
That you just won't take my hand
But you're down to makin' out
Should I not, cause I want, but I just
Exist when you're in need
But baby if you need some time to waste
You know you can stay with me
How do you measure
Love over pleasure
I just can't seem to believe
Could there be a fine line
In romance and good times
Is this the love that I need?
How do you measure
Love over pleasure
I just can't seem to believe
Could there be a fine line
In romance and good times
Is this the love that I need?
If you don't want nothing
Then why don't you just set me free?
The lyrics of FLU's song "Is This The Love That I Need?" revolve around the theme of the complexity of love and the confusion that surrounds it. The first verse begins with a question, asking how one can measure love over pleasure, and expressing the inability to believe that the singer has found the right kind of love. The chorus repeats the question, emphasizing the uncertainty of the singer's feelings and the distinction between romance and good times. The second verse communicates the struggle of the singer, who is unable to let go of the connection despite the pressure that comes with it. There is an acknowledgement of the attraction towards the person, but the confusion is still present. The final verse presents the singer's confusion and frustration at the other person's actions, who wants to remain distanced while still engaging in physical interactions. The singer hopes for a better understanding of the situation and pleads for freedom if the other person is not interested in a real, meaningful relationship.
The lyrics seemingly convey the conflict between physical attraction and the desire for emotional connection. The singer is unable to understand why the other person seems distant, despite enjoying physical intimacy. The song's overall tone is contemplative and introspective, which adds to the aching questioning of the singer.
