My Favorite Things
The Sound of Music & Rebecca Luker Lyrics

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
The beauty in nature, like the refreshing rain on roses and the cute little features on kittens, can bring joy to my heart.

Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
The cozy warmth of items like a steaming kettle and soft mittens can provide comfort and a feeling of security.

Brown paper packages tied up with strings
The simple act of receiving a package, especially when beautifully wrapped with natural elements like brown paper and string, can elicit excitement and happiness.

These are a few of my favorite things
These are some of the things that bring me joy and comfort in life.

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple strudels
The lovely color of ponies and the delicious taste and smell of freshly baked apple strudels are delights that bring pleasure and happiness to me.

Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
The distinct sounds of doorbells and sleigh bells, as well as the delicious tastes of German dishes like schnitzel with noodles, can evoke fond memories and sensations of joy.

Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
Observing the beauty of nature, such as the graceful flight of wild geese under the moonlight, can inspire wonder and awe.

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
The elegant and classic beauty of girls wearing white dresses with pretty blue sashes is a vision that brings joy to my heart.

Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
The gentle and unique beauty of snowflakes resting on my nose and eyelashes is a magical experience that brings me happiness.

Silver white winters that melt into springs
The natural cycle of seasons, where the crisp snow of winter transitions into the warmth and renewal of spring, is a reminder of the beauty and impermanence of life.

When the dog bites, when the bee stings
Even in difficult circumstances, such as when one is hurt by an animal or insect, it is important to remember the things in life that bring joy and happiness.

When I'm feeling sad
During times of sadness and hardship, it can be helpful to take a moment and remember the good things in life that bring joy and comfort.

I simply remember my favorite things
By recalling the things in life that bring happiness and comfort, one can find solace and joy during difficult times.

And then I don't feel so bad
By focusing on the positives in life, even during hard times, it is possible to find a sense of peace and contentment that can ease feelings of sadness and discomfort.
