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

Hi, Snippy! This song is actually an old favorite of mine - thanks for posting!

Sort of an anthem of mine, actually. :)

Those are some beautiful lyrics, and a wonderful picture to accompany it. Where is the picture taken, do you know?

Hi snippy, oh I love these lyrics. Wonderful poetry.

The music is running through my head as I type.

Great picture, thanks much.
