[Drew Gehling, Jessie Mueller - It Only Takes a Taste lyrics]
Just seeing you, sitting here
All by yourself in your uniform (sung)
You remind me of a girl I once knew
Gah, by now she’s well in middle age
Probably 41, 42
Huh thank you?
What? Oh my god, no, no, no no (sung)
She was a waitress at a shop I
Used to frequent quite a lot
Nice teeth and small hands and snuck
Me goodies I couldn’t afford then
She was sweet to me reminds me of you
Hmm oh, well, nobody ever really
Notices me that way, so -
Somebody did, right?
Hmm?
No because you have the, the baby you'd -
(sung) she'd make the pies fresh every day
Like you, I guess but I must say
If pies were books yours
Would be Shakespeare's letters
You remind me of her, but better
It only takes a taste
When it's something special
It only takes a taste when ya know it's good
Sometimes one bite is more than enough
To know you want more of the thing
You just got a taste of
That reminds me of a thing we would say
Me and my momma in the kitchen when we'd bake
She'd say Jenna
You can tell the whole story with a taste
Yeah! No that's exactly what I mean
I swear that as those flavors mixed and
Melted I could hear the sirens sing
It was truly something special - one taste
And I want the whole thing
I must say it felt like I was carried away
Intoxicated, made me escape the room I was in
I can't help but wonder how
Your hands must have felt
Creating such a masterful thing
Just one bite caused all that wondering
It only takes a taste
It only takes a taste when you know it's good
Sometimes one bite is more than enough
To know you want more of the thing
You just got a taste of
