my heart stood still

i took one look at you

that's all i meant to do

and then my heart stood still

my feet could step and walk

my lips could move and talk

and yet my heart stood still

though not a single word was spoken

i could tell you knew

that unfelt clasp of hands

told me so well you knew

i never lived at all

until the thrill of that moment

when my heart stood still

i took one look at you

that's all i meant to do

and then my heart stopped right there

my feet could step and walk

my lips could move and talk

and yet my heart stood still

though not a single word was spoken

i could tell you knew

that unfelt claps of hands

told me so well you knew

i never lived at all

until the thrill of that moment

when my heart stood still
