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
