THE VERY THOUGHT OF YOU
by Ray Noble

(with Nat King Cole 1958)

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 hear 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.

(slightly adapted from the song with the same title)
