This Is It Lyrics

1, 2, 3, 4*

This is it
Here I stand
I'm the light of the world
I feel grand
Life is love, I can feel
And I know yes for sure, it is real

And it feels as though I've seen your face a thousand times
And you said you really know me yes your self
And I know that you were gonna dipped* a wind to ride.*
But you say you're gonna leave it for yourself*

Oh...

I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan
I never thought that I would be your lover
c'mon please just understand.

This is it
I can say
I'm the light of the world
I'm a man*
And I feel* this is real
Everytime I'm in love that I feel

And I feel as though I've known you since a thousand years
And you tell me that you seen my face before
And you said to don't want me hanging around
Many times wanna do it there* before

Oh yeah

I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan
I never thought that I would be your lover
c'mon please just understand.

This is it
I can feel
I'm the light of the world
This is real
Feel my soul* we can say
And I'll tell you my ** let it play.

And I feel as though I've known you for a thousand years
And you said me that you were someone like* myself
And you said want to go with me all the while
And I know that its really doing yourself

Oh yeah

I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan
I never thought that I would be your lover
c'mon please dear, understand.

I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan
I never thought that I would be your lover
c'mon dear, understand.

Cover art for This Is It lyrics by Michael Jackson

this song is kind of underrated, i think it is beautiful...people said he kind of lost it but i think he had it in him this whole time and was just waiting for the right moment to bless us with his presence

:) I think so too, he wrote this song maybe 20 years before he died... Its special and it was the right moment I mean he waitet with "This is it" till the end... beautiful song, beautiful personality

This song is simply beautiful. I'm just sad it's the song he will ever reocrd. Michael Jackson can do no wrong.

These lyrics were written some 20+ years ago so not the last song at all. And there's more to download which didn't make it on to his albums - Escape, If You Don't Love Me, Gangsta, Nite Line, Starlight Sun...go and check 'em out!!!

Yeah, it was written along time ago, but it's the last song he recorded before his death. That's what I meant. Unless he also recorded it in the 80s. Yeah, I actually don't know.

Not Valid

It was recorded in the 80's - you can definitely hear it in his voice.

I like this song. This song means alot to me. This guy has been singing for forty-five years.

The meaning to his words are very clear it says this is it the last time anyone will ever see him again. He also speaks the truth about people when he says falling in love wasn't my plan he meant he never meant for everyone to look up to him like he was an angel. Also states that I've seen your face one thousand times meaning he's tired of seeing our face its time to go on and he have done enough for us this world is just not fair he doesnt want to live anymore people done took advantage of him saying he raped a kid comevon people is that how yall wanted to repay him after all he's done now he is scared to get seen because he might go to jail for the death of him being a hoax its not right judging people because one day it can even happend to you not cool how people is killing or lying or commiting suicide God didnt make this world for nothing he made it so he can see if we are worthy enough to go to heaven but i guess a lot of people is not gonna make it.

I like this song so much, but I heard about all the hoopla over it. Gosh, it kind of ruins the song.

Cover art for This Is It lyrics by Michael Jackson

The "hoopla" was apparantly sorted out very quickly and even Paul Anka said that it was just a mistake that could have happened with any song.

Great song, quite obviously about falling in love at first sight. I hope a lot more unreleased MJ songs are made available, I'm sick of the constant repackaging of MJ greatest hit cd's.

I love this song along with all his other ones. He was so talented, it sucks he will never make another album.

Cover art for This Is It lyrics by Michael Jackson

I don't understand. What is hoopla???

Hoopla is a lot of fuss around something.

"This is it" should say enough, every word is clear and the message very simple but the hard thing for some more about what some WANT to hear and interprate than just LISTEN to the meaning "This is IT"

Song Meaning

Though it's clear that the song is not finished from Michael's hand it's a beautiful song. Not his best, but certinly not his worst either. A sweet and sentimental song that I think will fit perfect at the end credits of the movie. It's sure to bring out a tear or two.

the movie is freaking awesome. Believe me, you will cry at some point during that movie.
