My Heart Stood Still
LORENZ HART, RICHARD RODGERS
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 that 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
