NEEDLE IN A HAYSTACK
From the film "The Gay Divorcee" (1934)
(Con Conrad / Herb Magidson)
Fred Astaire - 1934


It's just like looking for a needle in a haystack
Searching for a moonbeam in the moon
Still I've gotta find you

It's just like looking for a raindrop in the ocean
Searching for a dewdrop in the dew
Still I've gotta find you

I'll roam the town in hope that we'll meet
Look at each face I pass on the street
Sometimes I feel the beat of your feet
But it's just imagination

Though it's like looking for a needle in a haystack
Still I'll follow every little clue
'Cause I've gotta find you.
