lyrics

PINK THINGS

Kneeling on my kitchen floor strumming out a few chords
I’m sure I’ve had this melody before
‘Cos this is how it goes but the words they still escape me
And the smell of food is sticking to my clothes

And in the other room my little girl sings and dreams about a future full of pink things and sleigh bell rides in the snow
And little does she know is the songs that she sings
Is so much better than my own… It’s so much better than my own

So I walk through the door and I step inside the living room to see her pirouetting on the floor
And then she says to me ‘Daddy will you sing with me? Let’s sing that song we used to sing before’…

And then in this room my little girl sings and dreams about a future full of pink things and sleigh bell rides in the snow
And little does she know is the songs that she sings
Is so much better than my own… It’s so much better than my own

So we dance round the room and we laughed as we play
Then we danced round the room she lifted my cares away…

So now in this room when my little girl sings we dreams about a future full of pink things and sleigh bell rides in the snow
And what she has shown me… what she has told me
Is so much better than my own… It’s so much better than my own
