The Recipe

(album: GUN - 2018)

Can we take you and add me
And a car, the summer season
And a view of the beach and a backseat
Can we take you and add me
And a car, the summer season
And a view of the beach and a backseat
Baby, that's the recipe

Why can't we just freeze in this moment?
Spend eternity with you, my woman
As the sun dips in the ocean
Wrapped up like some vines 'till the morning
I swear there's nowhere I'd rather be
Than here tangled up with you all day
You're all that I wanted
I was lost, you're my compass
Like you've come from where the lord is
With peace to bathe my soul with

Can we take you and add me
And a car, the summer season
And a view of the beach and a backseat
Can we take you and add me
And a car, the summer season
And a view of the beach and a backseat
Baby, that's the recipe

I see you and me
Like we're the sun and the sea
Or the fall and the leaves
Or a spoon and a bowl of ice-cream
We're whole, we were made to finish each other
You're what my soul has been aching to discover
Like you're coco and I'm winter time
Oh, I'm the appetite, baby, you are dinner time
You're the knock out the park in the 9th
And I'm your home base, darling, we were meant to collide
I want all the rest my seasons spent with you
I want your salt and pepper braids when I'm 81
So can we mix our grief
Can we mix our happiness
Can we mix our homes
Take our broken pieces
Like we're both adhesive
And make one whole

And yeah, I want cash and cars
But I want you too, mama
And yeah, I want cash and cars
But I want you too, mama
And yeah, I want cash and cars
But I want you too, mama
And yeah, I want cash and cars
But I want you too, mama

So can we take you and add me
And a car, the summer season
And a view of the beach and a backseat
Can we take you and add me
And a car, the summer season
And a view of the beach and a backseat
Baby, that's the recipe
