This Is Love Lyrics
I can't believe life's so complex
When I just wanna' sit here and watch you undress
This is love, this is love that I'm feeling
Does it have to be a life full of dread?
I wanna chase you round the table, I wanna touch your head
This is love, this is love that I'm feeling
I can't believe that the axis turns on suffering
When you taste so good
I can't believe that the axis turns on suffering
While my head burns
This is love, this is love that I'm feeling
Even in the summer, even in the spring
You can never get too much of a wonderful thing
You're the only story that I never told
You're my dirty little secret, wanna keep you so
You're the only story that never been told
You're my dirty little secret, wanna keep you so
Come on out, come on over, help me forget
Keep the walls from falling as they're tumbling in
Come on out, come on over, help me forget
Keep the walls from falling on me, tumbling in
Keep the walls from falling as they're tumbling in
This is love, this is love that I'm feeling
When I just wanna' sit here and watch you undress
I wanna chase you round the table, I wanna touch your head
When you taste so good
I can't believe that the axis turns on suffering
While my head burns
You can never get too much of a wonderful thing
You're my dirty little secret, wanna keep you so
You're the only story that never been told
You're my dirty little secret, wanna keep you so
Keep the walls from falling as they're tumbling in
Come on out, come on over, help me forget
Keep the walls from falling on me, tumbling in
Keep the walls from falling as they're tumbling in

I like the repitition--it has a nice effect, sort of like her head is spinning from all the feelings of being in love.
How in 10 years has no one mentioned these are the totally wrong ass lyrics? lol Not even Polly's! The lyrics above are for Texas' "Beliefs" XD The CORRECT lyrics:
I can't believe life's so complex When I just wanna' sit here and watch you undress This is love that I'm feeling Does it have to be a life full of dread? I wanna' chase you round the table, I wanna' touch your head This is love that I'm feeling I can't believe that the axis turns on suffering When you taste so good I can't believe that the axis turns on suffering While my head burns This is love that I'm feeling Even in the summer, even in the spring You can never get too much of a wonderful thing

My nym is up there as "edited by" because I submitted the correct lyrics maybe a year ago. But the lyrics didn't get replaced. I'd even identified that Texas song. Thanks for taking care of it your way :-). It's clear all the other comments below refer to the correct lyrics, so somewhen things got cross-linked. Cheers, BlueStraggler.

Thank you! Bloody hell I've been confused.

This is just a strong and passionate song about being in love one of my favourtite PJ songs
this is about the pure joy taken from being in love and about the haze that it creates, hiding impurity and trouble under the carpet (as it were). nice to see it aswell, after all artful music rarely tries to show anything but doom and gloom. For that i give this powerful song ultimate respect.
I think that it's about being unfaithful. That love is not "good", but it feels really nice.
She feels guilty about it: "I can't believe that the axis turns on suffering/When you taste so good"
And it's a forbidden love but she wants it to be that way because she's just having fun: "You're the only story that never been told/ You're my dirty little secret, wanna keep you so"
@patreznor – I also think it is about being in love with someone despite being a monogamous relationship with someone else (who she doesn't want to leave as I understand it).

Definitely about something she wants to cover up, she gets thrills from it being secret and forbidden: 'you're my dirty little secret, wanna keep you so'. Great song.
the lyrics playfully hint at sex without spelling it out (and getting censored). The first line ends with ...ex, so you expect the second line to be about something that she loves that also ends with ..ex. She changes it at the end to "undress" which doesn't rhyme.
Also "touch your head" is a bit of a random expression (not his lips, for instance, which would be more romantic), but it hints at "giving him head." There are probably more that I missed.
my fav PJ song! This song is just about strong feeling of falling in love
love is difficult, relationships are difficult and everyone has their complications, nothing fits like a jigsaw. this captures that and also the wonderful feeling that is love.
Great Video to this tune ;)
