Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How can I tell if he loves me so
Is it in his eyes, oh no you'll be deceived
Is it in his eyes, oh no you'll make believe
If you want to know, if he loves you so
It's in his kiss
That's where it is, oh yeah
In his warm embrace, oh no that's just his arm
If you want to know, if he loves you so
It's in his kiss
That's where it is, oh it's in his kiss
That's where it is, oh-oh
Kiss him and squeeze him tight
And find out what you want to know
If it's love, if it really is
It's there in his kiss
How 'bout the way he acts, oh no that's not the way
And you're not listening to all I say
If you want to know, if he loves you so
It's in his kiss, that's where it is
Oh yeah it's in his kiss, that's where it is
Oh-oh, kiss him and squeeze him tight
And find out what you want to know
If it's love, if it really is
It's there in his kiss
How 'bout the way he acts, oh no that's not the way
And you're not listening to all I say
If you want to know, if he loves you so
It's in his kiss
That's where it is, oh yeah it's in his kiss
That's where it is, oh it's in his kiss
The Shoop Shoop Song by Betty Everett is a song about a person who is trying to decipher if their partner loves them or not. The song begins with the singer asking how they can tell if their partner loves them. They then go on to explain that it is not in their partner's eyes as that can be deceiving and it is not in their face or warm embrace. Instead, they suggest that it is in the kiss - that's where the truth of their partner's love lies.
The singer then urges the listener to kiss their partner and squeeze them tight to find out if it is love or not. The song concludes with the singer reminding the listener that it is in the kiss, and they shouldn't focus on the way their partner acts as that is not an accurate measure of their love.
The song has become a classic and has been covered by numerous artists over the years. It's a catchy tune that captures the feeling of uncertainty that comes with new relationships. The song has been used in various films and TV series, including Mermaids, Look Who's Talking Now, and Gilmore Girls.
