My Favourite Things
Family Force 5 Lyrics

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
I find comfort in small and simple things like raindrops on roses or the soft whiskers of a kitten

Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
I cherish items like bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens that bring warmth and coziness to my life

Brown paper packages tied up with strings
I enjoy the excitement of receiving gifts, especially ones wrapped in simple brown paper and tied up with strings

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels
I have a soft spot for things that are pleasing to the senses, like a cream colored pony or a crisp apple streudel

Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
I appreciate the sounds and tastes of home, like the cheerful sound of a doorbell, the jingle of sleigh bells, or a savory schnitzel with noodles

Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
I feel connected to nature and its beauty, like the sight of wild geese flying with the moon on their wings

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
I enjoy the elegance of something like a girl in a white dress paired with a blue satin sash

Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
I appreciate the playfulness of something like snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes

Silver white winters that melt into springs
I find joy in the changing seasons and the beauty of the transition from a silver white winter to a vibrant spring

When the dog bites
When something negative happens, like getting bitten by a dog

When the bee stings
When something negative or painful happens, like getting stung by a bee

When I'm feeling sad
When I'm down or feeling blue

I simply remember my favorite things
I think about all the things that bring me joy and happiness

And then I don't feel so bad
By focusing on the positive, I can lift myself out of a negative state of mind
