What Is Love? Lyrics

What Is Love? Lyrics by Howard Jones I love you whether or not you love me I love you even if you think that I don't Sometimes I find you doubt my love for you, but I don't mind Why should I mind, Why should I mind Chorus What is Love anyway, does anybody love anybody anyway What is Love anyway, does anybody love anybody anyway Can anybody love anyone so much that they will never fear Never worry never be sad The answer is they cannot love this much nobody can This is why I don't mind you doubting And maybe love is letting people be just what they want to be The door always must be left unlocked To love when circumstance may lead someone away from you And not to spend the time just doubting I love you whether or not you love me I love you even if you think that I don't Sometimes I find you doubt my love for you, but I don't mind Why should I mind, Why should I mind Chorus What is Love anyway, does anybody love anybody anyway What is Love anyway, does anybody love anybody anyway Can anybody love anyone so much that they will never fear Never worry never be sad The answer is they cannot love this much nobody can This is why I don't mind you doubting And maybe love is letting people be just what they want to be The door always must be left unlocked To love when circumstance may lead someone away from you And not to spend the time just doubting

Meaning of What Is Love?

“What Is Love?” explores the profound and often perplexing nature of true love with a gentle, accepting perspective. Howard Jones conveys a message of unwavering devotion, suggesting that love shouldn't be conditional on reciprocation or plagued by doubt. The repeated questioning – “What is love anyway?” – highlights the difficulty in defining this powerful emotion, yet he insists on loving regardless of another’s feelings or insecurities. The song champions an open-hearted approach, advocating for letting individuals be themselves and accepting that circumstances may lead to separation without diminishing the depth of affection. Ultimately, Jones suggests that a truly boundless love is so immense it transcends fear and sadness, a capacity few can genuinely possess, encouraging acceptance and trust within a loving relationship.
