Recipe For Love

A little bit of ketchup,
A little bit of salt,
A little bit of "Sorry, Honey,
It was my fault."
Now, don't that make those french fries taste real good?
A little bit of sugar,
A little bit of cream,
A little bit of lettin' go,
And blowin' off steam.
A little bit of kissin' makes love feel like it should.

A little bit mustard,
Some brown sugar too,
Some pineapple juice,
And an "I love you."
That ham in the oven makes the whole house smell sublime.
A little bit of "Thank you",
A little bit of "Please",
A couple hugs and kisses
And a gentle squeeze.
Put them all together, your love will turn out just fine.

There's no perfect recipe for love.
What works for someone,
May not work for you.
The trick is finding just the right
Amount of compromise.
You'll find love in everything you do.

A little holdin' on
When things get tough,
Finding more strength
When you don't have enough
Things'll get better if you just take the time.
A little bit of faith
A little bit of trust
A little bit of not
Giving in to lust
Love gets sweeter with age, just like fine wine.


There's no perfect recipe for love.
What works for someone,
May not work for you.
The trick is finding just the right
Amount of compromise.
You'll find love in everything you do.

A little bit of ketchup,
A little bit of salt,
A little bit of "Sorry, Honey,
It was my fault."
Now, don't that make those french fries taste real good?
