My Heart Stood Still

My Heart Stood Still - Edmund Hockridge

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 thats 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

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
