The Very Thought of You
noble ray Lyrics
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
In "The Very Thought of You," Noble Ray sings of the all-consuming power of love. With every thought of his beloved, he is transported into a world where ordinary tasks pale in comparison to the joy that fills his heart. The very idea of her existence is enough to make his heart race, and he cannot help but daydream about her constantly. Ray underscores the intensity of his emotions by referencing the natural world, where he sees his love's face in every flower and her eyes in the stars above.
The lyrics also highlight the slow passage of time when one is apart from one's beloved. Every moment without her seems unbearable, and it is only in her presence that time begins to feel like it is moving forward again. In the end, the lyrics emphasize the transformative power of love. The mere thought of someone can change an entire world, and for Ray, the very thought of his love is all he needs to feel complete.
