Is This Love
Jensen and The Flips Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I was a hum-drum person
Leading a life apart
When love flew in through my window wide
And quickened my hum-drum heart
Love flew in through my window
I was so happy then
But after love had stayed a little while
Love flew out again

What is this thing called love?
This funny thing called love?
Just who can solve its mystery?
Why should it make a fool of me?
I saw you there one wonderful day
You took my heart and threw my heart away
That's why I ask the Lawd up in Heaven above
What is this thing called love?

You gave me days of sunshine
You gave me nights of cheer
You made my life an enchanted dream
'Til somebody else came near
Somebody else came near you
I felt the winter's chill




And now I sit and wonder night and day
Why I love you still

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Jensen And The Flips's Is This Love? speak to the universal experience of falling in love and the confusion that often accompanies it. The opening lines paint a picture of a mundane existence upended by the arrival of love, which is described as having flown in through the window and quickened the singer's heart. The initial happiness soon gives way to sadness as love just as quickly departs. The song's overarching question – "What is this thing called love?" – is asked repeatedly throughout, as the singer struggles to understand the enigmatic force that has both uplifted and disappointed them.


The song's second verse finds the singer reminiscing about a former flame who brought light and warmth into their life, but ultimately caused heartbreak when they left. The chorus finds the singer once again grappling with the nature of love and its ability to make a fool of them. In the final stanza, the singer reflects on their continued love for the person who left them despite the pain it causes.


Overall, Is This Love? expresses the complexity and uncertainty inherent in the experience of loving another person, and the internal conflict that often accompanies it.

2016, 2016 noon ni recommend sakin to noon isa sa paborito ko tao sa buo mundo. Everytime na pinakikingan ko ito bumabalik talaga sakin yung feelings ko towards that girl. That girl I always wanted, that girl I always want to chose that girl I always want to love.

This song reminds me if this feelings of regret, dahil hindi na pagbigyan yung love na sobra deserve niya, yung love na gusto gusto niya matangap at yun yung love na handang handa ko ibigay.

This song never failed para ipaalala sakin kung gaano ko ginusto yung tao yun kung gaano ako natuto mag mahal more than I should love my self. This song also made e know myself even better at Hindi ko na ma imagine na may kanta pa lalabas na magpaparamdam ng ganito sakin. That love that got a way.

For who ever feeling the kind of love who would give everything, the heart, soul, fight for it! Wag kayo tutulad sa mga someone like me who just let it fail. Who just let it go. Just fight for it wag bibitwan. Hangang sa mapag tagumpayan.

And to my favorite person who I fell in love with. I still love you, and will always love you no matter what. Thank you for giving me this track. Even if hindi nabigyan ng chance. I always want to keep this love inside my heart because I know this kind of love is the best love that one person must ever feel.

Jensen and The Flips thank you! Until the next flippin ❀️
