LYRICS

Chestnut and clay, cotton and sage

prisms of color dancing in water

rose on skin, aloe and gin

notes of a harp by the fire in winter

toes in the soil, blueberry mead

watching a garden grow from a seed

dip in a river, dip in a dream

these are a few of my favorite things

Rosemary dried in a bundle beside

all the jars packed with spices, and baskets of peaches

Oh life! You are brimming with dragonflies perching

on woolen hats shading these eyes ever searching

Oh find here before you the diamonds of moments

the piles of wishes and dandelion choices

Oh dance, they are beckoning your eyes to see

chance, take a chance and awake to this dream

loosen your hair, let yourself free

these are a few of my favorite things

Take me by starlight, I’m flying

when the storm comes, when I’m feeling wide as an ocean unfolding

wide as the ocean, I’m wide as the ocean unfolding

(dip in a river, dip in this dream)

take me by starlight I’m flying

Lay on your back, press your gaze to the sky

notice the shapes of the stories that go by

do not be missing your one precious life

the gold colored painting of this day’s last sunlight

drink in the colors of breathing gone wild

and give back a little something of beauty

Twilight and pine, watching the cranes fly home

is the dawn calling a tear from my eye

dip in a river, deep in a dream

these are a few of my favorite things
