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 ******** as rec by AL Bowlly w Monia Liter (piano) April 9th 1934 london I don't need your photograph to keep by my bed, Your picture is always in my head! I don't need your portrait, dear, to call you to mind, For sleeping or waking, dear, I find; 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, Why, 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. (whistling) 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. (Transcribed by Peter Akers - April 2011)
