My Heart Stood Still

I laughed at sweethearts
I met at schools
All indiscreet hearts
They seemed romantic fools
A house in Iceland
It was my heart's domain
I see your eyes
Now castles rise in Spain!

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 secret touch of hands
Told me so well you knew

I never lived at all
Until the thrill of that moment
When my heart stood still

Though not a single word was spoken
I could tell you knew
That secret touch of hands
Told me so well you knew

I never lived at all
Until the thrill of that moment
When my heart stood still
Oh that moment when my heart stood still
