I Looked Back

Perry Como


You looked back to see if I looked back, 
And I looked back to see if you looked back 
To see if I looked back to see 
If you were lookin' at me! 

I looked back to see if you looked back, 
When you looked back I felt my heart strings snap, 
And heard a thunder clap 
And saw the lightning striking at me! 

Then I stood still, an' you stood still, 
The world stood still, my heart stood still, 
And O' the thrill that suddenly we knew, 
The very, very moment . . . 

I looked back to see if you looked back, 
And you looked back to see if I looked back 
To see if you looked back to see 
If I was lookin' at you! 

Then I stood still, an' you stood still, 
The world stood still, my heart stood still, 
And O' the thrill that suddenly we knew, 
The very, very moment . . . 

I looked back to see if you looked back, 
And you looked back to see if I looked back 
To see if you looked back to see 
If I was lookin' at you! 

( . . . to see if you were lookin' at me! ) 

To see if I was lookin' at you, lookin' at me, 
Lookin' at you . . . lookin' at me!
