Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The very thought of you
And I forget to do
The little ordinary things
That anyone ought to do
[Verse 2]
I'm livin' in the kind of daydream
I'm happy as a king
But foolish, though it may seem
To me, that's everything
[Verse 3]
The mere idea of you
The longing here for you
You'll never know, how slow the moments go
Until I'm near to you
[Verse 4]
I see your face in every flower
Your eyes in the stars above
It's just the thought of you
The very thought of you, my love
[Verse 5]
Yeah, yeah
Just the very thought of you
You're the most highly appreciated thing there is
Play it pretty
Play it pretty
[Verse 6]
I see your face in every flower
Your eyes in the star above
It's just the thought of you
The very thought of you, my love
