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 thats the recipe for making love

It doesnt need sugar cause its already sweet
It doesnt need an oven cause its got a lot of heat
Just add a dash of kisses to make it all complete
And thats the recipe for making love

And if youve made it right youll know it
Its not like anything youve made before
And if youve made it wrong youll know it
cause it wont keep you coming back for more

I didnt get it from my grandmas book upon the shelf
I didnt get it from a magical and culinary elf
No, a little birdie told me you cant make it by yourself
And thats the recipe for making love

And if youve made it right youll know it
Its not like anything youve made before
And if youve made it wrong youll know it
cause it wont keep you coming back for more

I didnt get it from my grandmas book upon the shelf
I didnt get it from a magical and culinary elf
No, a little birdie told me you cant make it by yourself
And thats the recipe for making love
And thats the recipe for making love

Thats the recipe
Try and see
Thats the recipe...
For making love
Hum...yum!
