Where Is The Love?
S.O.A. Featuring Gary Des'Etages 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 thorough 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 "Where Is The Love" start with a hum-drum lifestyle of the singer that turns upside down after love enters into his life. Love, like magic, has transformed the mundane and monotonous life into a happy one. The metaphor of 'Love flew in through my window wide' signifies the unexpected way it entered the singer's life. However, as love is unpredictable, it leaves as suddenly as it had come, leaving behind an emptiness and longing for love. The chorus depicts the singer's confusion about the nature of love, wondering why it is a mystery that fools people.


The second verse speaks of how the person responsible for bringing the sunshine and cheer leaves the singer, and someone else came along. The metaphor 'I felt the winter's chill' signifies the singer's loneliness and sadness. However, even after all this time, the singer still ponders on the question of 'Why I love you still?,' which signifies that the love has become a habit, and even though he knows it's bad for him, he can't help loving.

Love made me feel alive and excited


Love flew in thorough my window
Love came unexpectedly and without warning

'Til somebody else came near
Until someone else entered the picture


Somebody else came near you
Someone else caught your attention


I felt the winter's chill
I was left feeling cold and alone


And now I sit and wonder night and day
I am constantly thinking about what went wrong


Why I love you still?
Despite everything, I still have feelings for you and don't understand why

Belle vidéo, ça me rappelle il y a 9 mois quand j'étais si pauvre et fauché que je pouvais à peine me permettre deux repas par jour. Je me souviens avoir franchi la plus grande étape de ma vie lorsque j'ai investi mon dernier revenu auprès d'un trader expert qui travaille avec une société commerciale. Cela peut sembler peu, mais il a fallu du courage pour savoir qu'investir était la bonne chose à faire à l'époque. Aujourd'hui, mon petit investissement de seulement 700 $ a généré plus de 90 000 $ dont j'ai investi dans l'immobilier avec une partie. Honnêtement, pour réussir, il faut faire un grand pas en avant. C'est là que tout commence. Le Forex est également un bon investissement.

Il ne s'agit pas d'investir mais de le faire judicieusement. J'ai un expert avec qui j'investis et elle négocie et réalise un profit pour moi tous les 7 jours. Elle s'appelle Mme Catherine et elle est reconnue pour sa fiabilité et son expérience.
