The Very Thought Of You
I dont need your photograph to keep by my bed
Your picture is always in my head
I dont need you 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
Im living in a kind of daydream
Im happy as a queen
And foolish though it may seem
To me thats everything
The mere idea of you
The longing I hear for you
Youll never know
How slow the moments go
Till Im near to you
I see your face in every flower
Your eyes in stars above
Its just the thought of you,
The very thought of you, my love
