"Favorite Time Of Year" lyrics

"Favorite Time Of Year"
(with Joe Sample)
(feat. Tori Kelly)


[India.Arie:]
Kids are making angels in the snow
Magic tricks by uncle Joe
You can feel the loving in the air
Family coming in from everywhere
Grandma sitting in her favourite chair
With a halo of silver hair
With a smile lighting up the room
So sad grandpa's gone too soon

This is why Christmas is my favourite time of year

[Tori Kelly:]
Chocolate smells fill the room
Kids are waiting just to lick the spoon
We forgot something at the store
Santa's ringing bells outside the door
Even though the baby's only 3
She gets to put the star upon the tree
Sweet potato pies fill the table top
Ate so much I'm about to pop

This is why Christmas is my favourite time of year

[India.Arie & Tori Kelly:]
The family that prays together stays together
Let's bow our heads and remember why we're here
Let's take a family picture, gather 'round the tree
Everybody smile 1 2 3, time for Tyler Perry's new movie

There's no place I'd rather be
Than with you my family
Even in the midst of all the cheer
Let's remember everybody that ain't here
Standing right here beneath the mistletoe
I gotta little love I wanna show ya
Standing in the powder sugar snow
Your loving is the sweetest thing I know

This is why Christmas is my favourite time of year
This is why Christmas is my favourite time of year
And this is why Christmas is my favourite time of year
Sing Tori, my favourite time
