I don't need your photograph
To keep by my bed
Your picture is always in my head
I don't need your portrait
To call you to mind
For sleeping or waking I find

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, you're everything.

The mere idea of you
Belonging 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.

Music and Lyrics by Ray Noble (1934)
