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
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
your face in every flower Your eyes in stars above It's just the thought
of you The very thought of you, my love
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 your face in
every flower Your eyes in stars above It's just the thought of you The
very thought of you, my love
