| (Verse 1)
There's a smile bright That stands between me and hell Out of the corner of a dream Wrap the world around the seam That holds the mystery in That holds me tight (Chorus) It's your favorite thing It's your favorite thing It's your favorite (It's your handshake) thing It's your favorite (It's your thing) thing (Verse 2) Before you hold These three nights Round your soul Keep it tight Wrap the world Around the seam (Chorus) It's your favorite thing It's your favorite thing (These are the words that, try to accept) (These are the words that, try to accept) (Guitar Solo) (Bridge) There's a smile bright (Before you go) That stands between me and hell (Hold me tight) Out of the corner of a dream (Round my soul) Wrap the world (Chorus) It's your favorite thing It's your favorite thing (These are the words that (It's your favorite thing), try to accept) (These are the words that (It's your favorite thing), try to accept) It's your favorite thing (Outro) Try to accept, these are the words Try to accept, these are the words Try to accept, these are the words Try to accept, these are the words |
