[Verse 1]
Why is it so hard to find a very true love of mine?
A man who doesn't waste my time
Baby, will I ever find the one who's perfect for me?
If he is this hard to find, I'll create the one that's in my mind
'Cause I'm sick of playing on your time
And I know I can trust myself to bring him on alive
[Pre-Chorus]
If I could take your smile, not your laugh (Not your laugh)
All the rest you take back
Take his eyes and his kindness I gotta keep
And take all the pieces I know that I need
To create the one I dreamed of
[Chorus]
If I had a potion
I could takе what I like about you
And I would add a little bit of him too
Why do I have to choosе
Between him or you?
If I had a potion
I could change the color of your hair
Maybe the style of the clothes that you wear
Do all these things for love
Potion, baby
[Pre-Chorus]
If I could take your smile, not your laugh (Not your laugh)
All the rest you take back
Take his eyes and his kindness I gotta keep
And take all the pieces I know that I need
To create the one I dreamed of
[Chorus]
If I had a potion
I could take what I like about you
And I would add a little bit of him too
Why do I have to choose
Between him or you?
If I had a potion
[Interlude]
[Chorus]
If I had a potion
I could take what I like about you
And I would add a little bit of him too
Why do I have to choose
Between him or you?
If I had a potion
I could change the color of your hair
Maybe the style of the clothes that you wear
Do all these things for love
Potion, baby
