There Are So Many Ways To Spell It Out
I Love You

But Only One Way To Show You
(One Way To Show You)
I Can Scare The Mountain
Yell It Out 'Til My Face Turn Blue
But When I Come Back Down What Did That Prove
(All That, What Did It Prove?)

I Would Rather Let, My Day To Day [?]
Actions Speak Louder Than What I Say
But If I Had To Pick The Letters From The Alphabetbet
I Would Say It This Way

"A" Maybe We Can "B" Something You Can "C" "DEF"initely
I Know You Want A "G" Who Can Take You "HI" Higher Than A "J"
What I'm Tryna Say
Is Love Is As Simple As ABC
All You Gotta Do Is Sing With Me

Since I Made It Clear
You Understand I Wanna Be With You
All I Wanna Know Is If It's Cool
Now It Would Hurt Me So If You Said I Know
Cause I Be On My "P"s and "Q"s
And I've "X"ed All The Rest
This Man's Only Got Eyes For Y-O-U

I Would Rather Let, My Day To Day [?]
Actions Speak Louder Than What I Say
But If I Had To Pick The Letters From The Alphabetbet
I Would Say It This Way

"A" Maybe We Can "B" Something You Can "C" "DEF"initely
I Know You Want A "G" Who Can Take You "HI" Higher Than A "J"

What I'm Tryna Say
Is Love Is As Simple As ABC

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of Chris Brown's song "ABC's" set the tone for a playful and flirty tune, as Brown invites listeners to learn their ABCs. However, as the song progresses, the lyrics dive deeper into what love means and how it can be expressed.

Brown sings about the many ways that he could express his love, but ultimately concludes that actions speak louder than words. He emphasizes that he would rather let his day-to-day actions show his love rather than just saying the words "I love you." He then uses a clever metaphor, comparing the letters of the alphabet to different approaches to love.

Brown suggests that love can be as simple as ABC, and outlines how each letter can represent a different aspect of love. For example, "A" could represent the beginning of a relationship, with "B" representing something the couple can build together. "C" could stand for the definite commitment to each other, and "DEF" signifies the love that is definitely there. "G" could be a partner who takes the other person to new heights, and "J" is the highest point they can reach together. In short, Brown suggests that love can be complicated, but it doesn't have to be.

Overall, "ABC's" is a fun and lighthearted song that touches on deeper aspects of love and relationships. Brown shows off his signature smooth vocals while incorporating wordplay and a sing-along chorus.
