Story Behind The Song
I wanted to write a story about the parallels of love and spices.

Spices, like love, take on many flavors for each of us. Recalling a flavor for a spice, or a lost love, can be hard.

Lyrics
Love's like a spice, if ya know what I mean
Just a small taste and that did it for me
It was so hot that I sank to my knees
The same taste for you barely did anything
Sometimes just a hint of sweet is enough
But can be ruined if you add too much
I said somethings that now I'm not proud of
'Cause it left a bitter taste in your love
If you misjudge it, you'll likely lose out
Never to know just what you're doing without
Added to life makes the most thrilling brew
Take it away and I'm missing you
With a favorite spice, some pour on quite a lot
But a pinch to another can be over the top
If I knew that then would I be in this spot
Looking to bring back a taste you forgot
If you misjudge it, you'll likely lose out
Never to know just what you're doing without
Added to life makes the most thrilling brew
Take it away and I'm missing you
Love's like a spice, different for each of us
Some rather bland, others pack quite a punch
I once had a taste that I loved so much
But it's gone away now, along with her touch
