I could use a thousand words to say
What I've go on my mind
But what's the use of beating 'round the bush
Wastin' words, wastin' time

Boring you with talk
Ain't what I want
So I'll try
To get right to the point

To make a long story short
Baby, I love you, I love you, I love you
To make a long story short
Oh honey, I love you, I love you, I love you

I could find a million words to say
How your touch hmm makes me feel
But they wouldn't tell you half as much
As a kiss would reveal

Boring you with talk
Ain't what I want
So I'll try
To get right to the point

To make a long story short
Baby, I love you
To make a long story short
Oh baby, I love you, I love you, I love you, yea

Boring you with talk
Ain't what I want
So I'll try
To get right to the point

To make a long story short, ooh baby
Ooh honey, I need you, I want you
To make a long story short
Ooh baby, I love you, I want you, I need you
To make a long story short
Ooh baby, I need you, I want you
To make a long story short
Ooh baby, I love you, I love you, I love you
To make a long story short
Baby I love you
