[Intro]
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 bring you to mind
For sleeping or waking dear, I find
[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 and I'm happy as a king
And foolish though it may seem, why 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 your face in every flower, your eyes in stars above
It's just the thought of you, the very thought of you, my love
[Piano Break]
[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 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 Very Thought of You was written by Ray Noble.
