You remind me of a girl I once knew
A#m G#
God, by now she's well in middle age.
G#m C#
Probably 41, 42.
(none)
Huh. Thank you?
[Verse]
What? Oh my god! No no no...
B Bm
She was a waitress at a shop
A#m
I used to frequent quite a lot
Nice teeth and small hands
G#
and snuck me goodies I couldn't afford then
G#m C#
She was sweet to me,
B
Reminds me of you.
Jenna: Hmm. Oh well no one ever really notices me that way so...
Dr. Oomatter: Somebody did right?
Jenna: Hmm?
Dr. Pomatter: Yah, because you have th... the baby.
[Verse]
B Bm
She'd bake the pies fresh every day
like you i guess,
A#m
But i must say
G#
if pies were books yours would be shakespeare's letters.
G#m C#
you remind me of her,
F#
but better
[Chorus]
D#m B F# A#m
it only takes a taste when it's something special.
D#m B F# A#m B
it only takes a taste when you know it's good.
F# C# D# G#
sometimes one bite is more than enough
G#m F#
to know you want more of the thing you just got a taste of.
[Verse]
B Bm
Jenna: That reminds me of a thing we would say.
A#m G#
me and my mamma in the kitchen when we'd bake.

she's say "jenna, you can tell the whole story with a taste."
Dr. Pomatter: Yah.

No, that's exactly what i mean.
A#m
i swear that as those flavors mixed and melted
G#
i could hear the sirens sing.
G#m
it was truly something special.
C# F#
one taste and i want the whole thing.
[Bridge]

I must say it felt like i was carried away.
intoxicated.

i can't help but wonder

how your hand must have felt making that masterful thing.
C# C#m F#m G#
Jenna: Just one bite caused all that wondering.
[Chorus]
