LOVE IS THE BOTTOM LINE:

1998 by Lydia Glider-Shelley
Verse 1:
Well my baby and me been together a while,
We already feel like we’re married!
And if you could just see my sweet baby smile,
You’d want to get hitched, too!
We care for each other like no one I’ve seen,
Except some of those I have buried…
Each day we discover how closely our dreams
Draw us together anew, so
Chorus:
Love is the bottom line, baby, love is the bottom line!
Sign right here and you’ll be all mine
Baby, love is the bottom line!
Verse 2:
When I met my sweet baby life was such a big drag:
I just didn’t know what I needed…
But now, I think, maybe, ‘though I shouldn’t brag,
I’ve got the best of all things!
I wanted a friend, a kindred, a mate: And now I feel so completed!
I won’t pretend that I want to wait, we’ve already bought
the rings!
Yeah:
(repeat chorus)
Verse 3:
We’re glad you could share in our joy on this day!
As we unite our twin souls:
It is so rare to be able to say someone belongs together!
In this joining so right is the power of God,
Made manifest in our roles…
We are ready to fight, we are not overawed
By all the hard times we’ve weathered!
(repeat chorus twice)
