Recipe For Love
Harry Connick
Jr.
A little bit of me and a whole lot of you. / Add a dash of starlight
and a dozen roses too.
Then let it rise for a hundred years or two / and that’s the recipe for making
love.
It doesn’t need sugar cause it’s already sweet / It doesn’t need an oven
‘cause it’s got a lot of heat
Just add a dash of kisses to make it all complete / And that’s the recipe
for making love.
And if you’ve made it right you’ll know it. / It’s not like anything you’ve
made before.
And if you’ve made it wrong you’ll know it / ‘Cause it won’t keep you coming
back for more.
I didn’t get it from my grandma’s book upon the shelf
I didn’t get it from a magical and culinary elf.
No, a little birdie told me that you can’t make it by yourself,
And that’s the recipe for making love.
