My Heart Stood Still.1927.

Seq - Dr. J.Pitt-Payne. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. Nov 2000.

I laughed at sweethearts
I met at schools,

All indiscreet hearts
seemed romantic fools.

A house in Iceland
was my heart's 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 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 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.

Through all my schooldays,
I hated boys;

Those April Fool days,
brought me loveless joys.

I read my Plato,
Love, I thought a sin;

But since your kiss,
I'm reading Missus Glyn!

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 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.
