My Heart Stood Still

My Heart Stood Still - Joe Girard

I laughed at sweethearts

I met at schools

All indiscreet hearts

Seemed romantic fools

A house in iceland was

My hearts domain

I saw 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 which 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
