I Gave My Favorite Thing Away

I gave my favorite thing away, but it came back just the other day
Multiplied about a billion times I'd say
Just because I gave that favorite thing away

Well hell, I'd held onto it for so long
It had become an old forgotten song
But with that melody so pleasing, just to share it's so appeasing
I let it go knowing that nothing could go wrong

Now sharing is caring, when greatly we're daring
If possessions can possess us
Just letting 'em all fly's the highest high we can know, whoa!

You see, that thing itself is not the real prize
It's just that light of love reflected in her eyes
Cuz we're all hardwired to share, that's how the Mama keeps it fair
We all do better when we all do better, words from the wise

Now every time I give my favorite thing away
The loving comes back faster than a boomerang
And it's always stuffed with such good luck.
My piggy bank, my rubber duck
My old rockin horse endorphined orphans right away

Now sharing can be daring, when greatly we are caring
If possessions can possess us
Just letting 'em all fly's the highest high we can know

So go, go on and give your favorite things away
Watch 'em rock the world with loving kindness everyday
Spark the heart of someone you don't know
Let's give it up for letting go
Ditch some riches and make more room for making hay
Let's trip with witches, get back in tune in time to play
Let's flip the switches that turn our hearts on everyday, hey
Hey hey hey, let's share our favorite things today
