My Favourite
Peter Hammill
In my time I've told a lie or two
I've been a deceiver, but believe me what I now say is true
There's no other way I can express what I'm thinking of
You're my favourite, you're the one that I love
It's a one-horse race, still I'm ready to place my bet
I'm a pretty slow starter and I haven't quite caught up with it yet
It seems so extraordinary that you should care for me
You're my favourite
How lucky can any man be?
You're my favourite
Will you stay the course with me?
You're my favourite of all time
You're my favourite, can't you see?
You're my favourite of all time
Say you'll stay the course with me
