Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The very thought of you
And I forget to do
The little ordinary things
That everyone ought to do
I'm living in a kind of daydream
I'm happy as a king
And foolish though it may seem
To me, that's everything
[Verse 2]
The mere idea of you
The longing here for you
You'll never know how slow the moments go
Till I'm near to you
I see a face in every flower
Your eyes in stars above
It's just the thought of you
The very thought of you, my love
[Verse 3]
The very thought of you
And I forget to do
[Verse 4]
The mere idea of you
The longing here for you
You'll never know how slow the moments go
Till I'm near to you
I see a face in every flower
Your eyes in stars above
It's just the thought of you
The very thought of you, my love
[Verse 5]
The very thought of you
