My Heart Stood Still
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 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!
