Song lyrics to A Needle In a Haystack (1934) Music and Lyrics by Con Conrad and Herb Magidson, performed by Fred Astaire in The Gay Divorcee
It’s just like looking for a needle in a haystack
Searching for a moonbeam in the blue
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
For 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 got to find you.
