A recipe proven disaster-inviting!

So I found me a quiet man, as I recall;
Alone at the party, his back to the wall.
He wasn’t surrounded by women you see,
Or dripping in gold as I thought men should be;

It took me a month of trying to shake him;
To realize to keep him I’d have to take him;
Just as he was, and ultimately;
Change all my concepts of what men should be.

I shudder to think that this happy ending;
Could have been missed had I been unbending;
Now I have violins, my heart has wings!
All cause I stopped wanting all the wrong things!

Foolish was I to cry and regret,
Without making changes and still to expect;
A whole different outcome, like wondering why;
Those long cherished apples won’t make cherry pie!

I used to love bad boys and found them exciting;
A recipe proven disaster-inviting!

So I found me a quiet man, as I recall;
Alone at the party, his back to the wall.
He wasn’t surrounded by women you see,
Or dripping in gold as I thought men should be;

It took me a month of trying to shake him;
To realize to keep him I’d have to take him;
Just as he was, and ultimately;
Change all my concepts of what men should be.

I shudder to think that this happy ending;
Could have been missed had I been unbending;
Now I have violins, my heart has wings!
All cause I stopped wanting all the wrong things!

Foolish was I to cry and regret,
Without making changes and still to expect;
A whole different outcome, like wondering why;
Those long cherished apples won’t make cherry pie!
