The Very Thought of You

The Very Thought Of You - Elvis Costello

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 year 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 eye in stars above

It's just the thought of you

The very thought of you

My love

The mere idea of you

The longing year 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 eye in stars above

It's just the thought of you

The very thought of you

My love
