The Very Thought of You
Embracing Dreams: The Allure of Love in Sarah Vaughan's Melody
Lyrics
The very thought of you and I forget to do
The very thought of you causes me to forget my usual tasks and responsibilities.
The little ordinary things that everyone ought to do
I neglect the ordinary things that everyone should do when I'm immersed in thoughts of you.
I'm living in a kind of daydream
I feel like I'm living in a daydream, a state of bliss and fantasy.
I'm happy as a king
Thinking of you makes me happy, akin to the joy of a king.
And foolish though it may seem
Even if it may seem foolish to others, your thought is everything to me.
To me that's everything
Your thought holds immense significance and value for me.
The mere idea of you, the longing here for you
The very idea of you creates a deep yearning and desire within me.
You'll never know how slow the moments go till I'm near to you
When you are not near, time seems to pass very slowly, and every moment feels prolonged.
I see your face in every flower
Your presence is so vivid in my mind that I see your face in every flower.
Your eyes in stars above
Your influence extends even to the stars, as I see your eyes in the celestial bodies above.
It's just the thought of you
My happiness is derived simply from the thought of you.
The very thought of you, my love
The very thought of you, my love, is a source of joy and contentment.
The mere idea of you, the longing here for you
Similar to line 8, reiterating the intense longing and desire for your presence.
You'll never know how slow the moments go till I'm near to you
Expressing the slowness of time in your absence and the anticipation of being close to you.
I see your face in every flower
Continuing the imagery of your influence on nature, seeing your face in every flower.
Your eyes in stars above
Extending the connection to the celestial, finding your eyes in the stars above.
It's just the thought of you
Reiteration of the profound impact that the thought of you has on the speaker.
The very thought of you, my love
Concluding with the idea that the very thought of you, my love, is significant and cherished.
