In Love
Spice Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When did we fall in love
What was the date when was the hour
When did we fall in love
When does the bud become the flower

Was it the first time sweet lady
Or the second what was it dear
Was it the first time we fought oh
Or when we made up again

Were we lovers from first meeting
Or did love take time grow
Were we aware when love was there
Or were we last to know

When did we fall in love
What was the date when was the hour
When did we fall in love
When does the bud become the flower

Oh
Does anyone know until after
Does anyone care to think
Does it really matter at all
Would you do it again

Did you know the moment the one leaves
Did you know the moment I fell
Do we agree simultaneously
That we were under the spell

When did we fall in love
What was the date when was the hour
When did we fall in love
When does the bud become the flower

Does anyone know until after
Does anyone care to think
Does it really matter at all
Would you do it again

Did you know the moment the one leaves
Did you know the moment I fell
Do we agree simultaneously
That we were under the spell

When did we fall in love
What was the date when was the hour
When did we fall in love
When does the bud become the flower

Did we fall in love
Did we fall in love
Did we fall in love
Did we fall in love

Yes we fell in love

Did we fall in love
Did we fall in love
Did we fall in love
Did we fall in love





Yes we fell in love

Overall Meaning

Spice's song "In Love" is a reflection on the beginning stages of a romantic relationship. The song poses the questions "When did we fall in love?" and "What was the date when was the hour?" to highlight the uncertainty of when love begins. The lyrics also explore the idea of whether it was love at first sight or if the love took time to grow.


Additionally, the lyrics discuss the possibility that we may not know we are in love until after the fact, and whether or not it really matters when we fell in love as long as we acknowledge that we did fall in love. The chorus repeats the question "When did we fall in love?" and ends with the affirmation that "Yes, we fell in love."


Throughout the song, Spice's vocals are accompanied by a slow, hypnotic beat that reinforces the introspective nature of the lyrics. The song's overall message seems to be that the precise moment when we fall in love is less important than acknowledging the fact that we have fallen in love.

The very first song of David Garrik Byron and Mick Box, recording it with Paul Newton!
