To Make a Long Story Short Songtext
von The Statler Brothers

Some folks are famous for turnin′ a phrase
You've got your Shakespeares and your Hemingways
I can′t weave words the way they do
But here beside you (Here beside you)
At the break of day (At the break of day)
My heart is almost burstin' with things to say


I hope these simple words will do
To make a long story short, I love you
I'll never ever win the Pulitzer Prize
But I could write a book when I look in your eyes
Is my message getting through?
To make a long story short, I love you

So in conclusion, the bottom line
For a happy ending, darlin′, say you′ll be mine
Make my make-believe come true
Make a long story short, I love you

I'll never ever win the Pulitzer Prize
But I could write a book when I look in your eyes
Is my message getting through?
To make a long story short
To make a long story short
To make a long story short, I love you
