"potion" lyrics

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 it all to life

If I could take your smile
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

If I had a potion
I would 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
A potion, baby

If I could take your smile
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

If I had a potion
I would 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 would 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
A potion, baby
