The Bottom Line - Smokey Robinson

Bought a pound of writing paper

It’s balled up and scattered all around my place

I’ve been trying to write and say what

I found it hard to tell you face to face

I tried to get real deep and poetic

Put on a little word show

I borrowed from playwrights and poets and songwriters

But I’ll just simply say what I want you to know

I love you so much

I love you so much

I love you so much

I love you so much

I could write every day and all night

But that’s the bottom line, well, well

I think a million thought of many

About you and believe me and never fails

To be way too many to mention

But there’s one thought that always prevails

I love you so much

I, I love you so much

I love you so much, so much, so much

I love you so much

If I said all the things in my head

That’s the bottom line

Why do I do

Things that make me seem so unconfident

A phrase in love has no need to be fancy

It just needs to be truly meant, truly meant

Truly, truly, truly

I love you so much

I love you so much

I love you so much, so much, so much

I love you so much

I could preach or say a ten-day speech

If I write every day and all night

If I said all the things in my head

No matter what I do, I just love you

That’s the bottom line

I love you so much

Baby, I love you so much, so much, so much

I love you so much

I love you so much

I could write every day and all night

But that’s the bottom line

I love you so much, so much, so much

Love you, love you, love you, love you

I love you so much…
