lyrics

Nona’s Recipe
Written, performed and co-produced by Melissa Moshé (ASCAP 2012).

Go ahead and break my heart
Better than being alone on a Saturday night
I’ve been flatlining
For way too long

I never hurt myself
On the field of battle
When I play
Dust flying, sparks igniting
If it fizzles out than I never stay

And I just wanted to be safe (I just wanted to be safe)
I just wanted to let go (I just wanted to let go)
I thought for once
It would be alright
That’s what I get
Going against my own advice

Cuz I always put a dash of salt with my sugar
I put a dash of salt so life’s never too sweet
A dash of salt will always protect me
I keep a dash of salt always close to me

So go ahead and break my heart (Go ahead and break my heart)
With a brush of a hand
And a sideward glance

I wish that I could change the way I am
Finding the sweetness
In an empty hand

But I always put a dash of salt with my sugar
I put a dash of salt between you and me
A dash of salt will always protect me
I keep a dash of salt so the falls not too steep, yeah

So go ahead and break my heart (Go ahead and break my heart)
I’m prepared for our bitter end
I thought for once
It would be alright
That’s just what I get
Going against my own advice
Cuz I always put a dash of salt with my sugar
I put a dash of salt between you and me
A dash of salt will always protect me
I keep a dash of salt always close to me
