Lyrics The Bottom Line - Smokey Robinson

The Bottom Line

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…
