Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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

Every moment without their loved one feels like an eternity, and they become fixated on every detail that reminds them of them. The flowers they see, the stars in the sky, all serve as a symbol of their deep love for the other person.
The song reflects the beauty of love in its purest form. The idea of someone can be so powerful that it can change the entire outlook on life.
