I want to love you, and treat you right,
I want to love you, every day and every night,
We'll be together, with a roof right over our heads,
We'll share the shelter, of my single bed,
We'll share the same room, yeah! For Jah provide the bread.
Is this love, is this love, is this love,
Is this love that I'm feelin'?
Is this love, is this love, is this love,
Is this love that I'm feelin'?
I want to know, want to know, want to know now!
I got to know, got to know, got to know now!

I, I'm willing and able,
So I throw my cards on your table!
I want to love you, I want to love and treat, love and treat you right,
I want to love you every day and every night,
We'll be together, yeah! With a roof right over our heads,
We'll share the shelter, yeah, oh now! of my single bed,
We'll share the same room, yeah! For Jah provide the bread.

Is this love, is this love, is this love,
Is this love that I'm feelin'
Is this love, is this love, is this love,
Is this love that I'm feelin'?
Whoa! Oh yes I know, yes I know, yes I know now!
Oh yes I know, yes I know, yes I know now!

I, I'm willing and able,
So I throw my cards on your table!
See: I want to love ya, I want to love and treat ya,
love and treat ya right.

I want to love you every day and every night,
We'll be together, with a roof right over our heads!
We'll share the shelter, of my single bed,
We'll share the same room, yeah! Jah provide the bread.
We'll share the shelter, of my single bed

    General Comment:if you love this song, listen to the remix by xaphoon jones. its called "I Wanna Know Now", it's a mix of this song and "Kids" by MGMT. Genius.

    General Comment:everytime i hear this song, i instantly think of my girlfriend. this is the first song i put on a CD i made for her. and whenever were together, i play it and it just gets me everytime. i cant believe we have been going out for only 4 months. it feels like forever and i love that feeling. now i know she wont read this but sammie, i love you so much and no one has ever made me feel like this but i just love you so much and i hope we spend forever together.

    General Comment:Best LOVE song ever. Unlike most 'love' songs put out now it isn't about hittin it then quittin it, checkin out some ass, or your bedroom activites. It's about love and devotion. To share the shelter is some deep stuff. I don't know who he had in mind when he wrote this but she must of been something.
