《The Language of Love》是美國創作歌手Dan Fogelberg於1993年7月16日發行的流行搖滾歌曲，收錄於專輯《Windows And Walls》，後被多次收錄於精選集《The Very Best of Dan Fogelberg》等合輯中。Fogelberg包攬詞曲創作並參與演唱、吉他及打擊樂演奏，聯合多位樂手共同完成編曲製作。
歌曲通過男女對話的雙視角敘事，運用矛盾修辭展現戀人含蓄試探的情感交流。歌詞以"拒絕暗含接受""以牙還牙"等意象折射親密關係中的溝通困境，副歌借"愛的語言"悖論性揭示言語表達的局限，最終以"微笑與觸碰"強調非語言傳遞情感的核心主題。循環結構強化了直覺感知與表象表達的錯位，成為90年代Dan Fogelberg音樂生涯成熟期的代表性作品。

歌曲歌詞
She says no
When she means yes
And what she wants you know that I can't guess
When we want more you know we ask for less
Such is the language of love
I say leave
When I mean stay
But she don't see and so she moves away
What we really want you know we rarely say
Such is the language of love
It's tooth for tooth eye for eye
We hide our hearts then we won't say why
It's truth for truth lie for lie
Such is the language of love
One cries foul
And will not speak
The other claims a little victory
And all the time
You know we fail to see
This is the language of love
When a love begins to wander
No one ever knows
But we feel it deep inside us
Long before it shows
Long before it shows
We hem haw
We balk bluff
Our words don't ever seem to say enough
But a simple smile
A tender touch
Speaks the true language of love
When a love begins to wander
No one ever knows
But we feel it deep inside us
Long before it shows
Long before it shows
She says no
When she means yes
And what she wants you know that I can't guess
When we want more you know we ask for less
Such is the language of love
Such is the language of love
