Cover art for This Is Love lyrics by Mary Chapin Carpenter

This is a powerful love song certainly. I feel that this about lovers that reunite after a breakup. They talk long and deep about what happened. They agree they were in love and had good times, but that the relationship they once had is over. There are hints that it could recover, but it seems they are at peace now even if it doesn’t. This is love, a smart and beautiful love song.
