Lyrics

Bottom Line

There were days dragged into weeks then months
Of trying my damnedest
Doing the very best I could
To get where I had set myself to go
Not much to show
For-what reasons I don't know
Inside I felt just fine but bottom line
The origins of which I can't define
Bottom line I couldn't kick a goal
Couldn't kick a goal
Bottom line

Couldn't kick a single goal
Bottom line
Though inside I felt just fine
Things wouldn't roll
Not a single goal
Bottom line

I can't say what happened in my life
What made things turn around
Just kept on doing all I could
To get where I had set myself to go
And-it began to show
For-what reasons I don't know
Inside I felt just fine and bottom line
Because the will in me did not decline
Bottom line each kick became a goal
Became a goal
Bottom line

I was kicking many goals
Bottom line
All I worked for now was mine
On a red hot roll
Kicking lots of goals
Bottom line
Bridge:
Hey the moral of this story these two twists within my lifetime learning curve
Yeah the moral is despite you're working hard not going places
Never lose your nerve
Don't lose sight of what you're chasing keep strong focus, firm control
Then all of a sudden, out of the blue
Lady luck will shine on you
And every kick you've missed before
Will find its mark, add to your score
Yeah find its mark add to your score
Bottom line
Bottom line
Bottom line

Now you've seen what happened in my life
How things have turned around
Just kept on doing all I could
To get where I had set myself to go
And-it began to show
Confidence in me began to grow
Inner-me was feeling fine and bottom line
Because strong will in me did not decline
Bottom line every kick became a goal
Became a goal
Bottom line

Inner-me feels just fine and bottom line
Because strong will in me will not decline
Bottom line every kick becomes a goal
Becomes a goal
Bottom line
Bottom line
Bottom line
Yeah bottom line
