Lyrics
SheÃ,?s My Favorite Thing
James B. Twitty
She likes pink, I like blue,
I got a little angel and she loves me true
She smiles at me when she sings,
SheÃ,?s my favorite thing
She comes runninÃ,? with a great big grin
I catch her and I hold her in my arms again
She pats my cheek, when she sings
SheÃ,?s my favorite thing
I sometimes scold her Ã,?cause thatÃ,?s part of love
But afterwards she always reaches out for a hug
And when she whispers, Ã,?sorry DaddyÃ,? through her little tears
I know Heaven could never be better than this
She likes pink, I like blue,
Now IÃ,?m gettingÃ,? older and she is too
She still smiles at me when she sings,
SheÃ,?s my favorite thing
I sometimes wish we didnÃ,?t have to grow up
That I could wave a wand and make the clock stop
But how could I ask for more,
Ã,?Cause every day gets better than the day before
She likes pink, I like blue,
Now IÃ,?m gettingÃ,? older and she is too
She still smiles at me when she sings,
SheÃ,?s my favorite thing
