When the Thought of You Catches Up With Me - David Ball

Waiting, I was waiting So many long and lonely nights Searching, I was searching For something I could never find But I knew in that moment When your eyes met up with mine All my wait was over And that's when you changed my life The sun shines brighter when you are here My heart beats louder, and time just disappears Everything is how it should be When you're with me Dreamers, we are dreamin' Of all the days that lie ahead Nothin', there is nothin' That can take all that we have Hold you, I will hold you Through the better and the worse Promise, oh, I promise And I'm not just saying words The sun shines brighter when you are here My heart beats louder and time just disappears Everything is how it should be And I can't stop counting my lucky stars I'll always want to be where you are Everything is how it should be When you're with me I will always love you I will always love you The sun shines brighter when you are here My heart beats louder and time just disappears Everything is how it should be And I can't stop counting my lucky stars I'll always want to be where you are Everything is how it should be When you're with me Dreamers, we are dreamin' Of all the days that lie ahead With you, I'll be with you Until the very end

(Don Rich and Estella Olsson) Think of me when you're lonely Think of me when you're blue Think of me when you're far away For I'll be thinking of you Remember all the good times We shared in days gone by Remember all the sadness The day you said goodbye Think of me when you're lonely Think of me when you're blue Think of me when you're far away For I'll be thinking of you You said that you were leavin' But you wouldn't be gone too long With each new day I hope and pray That you'll come travellin' home Think of me when you're lonely Think of me when you're blue Think of me when you're far away For I'll be thinking of you I watch the mailman come I listen for the phone I meet the trains at the station But I spend my nights alone Now the waiting is over And the time has set the scene Yes, God meant me for only you And he meant you for me Think of me when you're lonely Think of me when you're blue Think of me when you're far away For I'll be thinking of you For I'll be thinking of you

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, and 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 You'll never know how slow the moments go till I'm near to you. I see you face in every flower, your eyes in stars above It's just the thought of you, the very thought of you, my love.
