Lyrics for My Heart Stood Still

Through all my school days, 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 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 that thrill of that moment when My heart stood still
