The very thought of you
And I forget to do
The little ordinary things everyone ought to do
I'm living in a kind of daydream
I'm happy as a queen
But foolish though it may seem to me that's everything

The mere idea of you
The longing here for you
You never know how slow the moments go
Oh until I'm near here to you
I see your face in every flower
Your eyes in the stars above
Its just the thought of you
The very thought of you my love

It's just the thought of you babe 
The very thought of you my love
