Hi,

There's something I don't quite understand in Nat King Cole's famous song 'unforgettable':

Quote:
Unforgettable, thats what you are
Unforgettable though near or far
Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone been more

What does 'things' mean here? Could you paraphrase 'How the thought of you does things to me'? Does it mean 'When I think of you, many wonderful feelings or good things happening to me?"

Thanks in advance.

Leslie

Perhaps you have paraphrased it rightly yourself.
I think that's quite transparent.
