My Heart Stood Still

John Alcorn


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

I never lived at all until the thrill of that
Moment when my heart stood still
And I never lived at all until the thrill
Of that moment when my heart stood still
