[Verse 1]
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:

[Refrain]
You're my favourite
You're the one that I love

[Verse 2]
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

[Refrain]
You're my favourite –
How lucky can any man be?

You're my favourite –
Will you stay the course with me?
[Outro]
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
