The Recipe

[Verse 1]
Who decided when the words came out?
You said I couldn't have these selfish doubts, I know
But I'm thinking it's the fact that I can

[Verse 2]
You're self-destructing from the inside out
And never find a way to talk it out, I know
But I'm thinking it's the fact that I can

[Pre-Chorus]
But you wouldn't waste away those thoughts I never had
And you wouldn't waste away

[Chorus]
Because it's honesty and things you promise me
Always on a list and growing constantly
Then I said
"I thought our love was just a recipe
Who would've thought that it'd mean everything to me?"

[Verse 3]
You know you're beautiful without that dress
If time is fleeting let's embrace this mess, I know
And if that's a fact you won't need it at all

[Pre-Chorus]
But you wouldn't waste away those thoughts I never had
And you wouldn't waste away

[Chorus]
Because it's honesty and things you promise me
Always on a list and growing constantly
Then I said
"I thought our love was just a recipe
Who would've thought that it'd mean everything?"
And in the morning light we'll turn the wrongs to right
Rearrange the odds and we can save tonight, oh
I thought our love was just a recipe
Who would've thought that it'd mean everything to me?

[Bridge]
I wanna know what it's like
To barely sleep through the night
And not have a care at all
And though I know it's been said
I've had these doubts in my head
But none that I can recall
I wanna know what it's like
To barely sleep through the night
And not have a care at all
And though I know it's been said
I've had these doubts in my head
But none that I can recall

[Chorus]
Because it's honesty and things you promise me
Always on a list and growing constantly
Then I said
"I thought our love was just a recipe
Who would've thought that it'd mean everything?"
And in the morning light we'll turn the wrongs to right
Rearrange the odds and we can save tonight, oh
I thought our love was just a recipe
Who would've thought that it'd mean everything to me?
