I'm something you like to share
with someone for whom you care.
Sometimes spicy, sometimes sweet,
Sometimes sweeps you off your feet.
Find me on the FM dial,
Coast to coast across the miles.
You've seen me in my make up
And you can make up with me.
I'm the X's to your O's.
Tell me then - who can I be?
