Lyrics My Heart Stood Still - Tony Bennett

My Heart Stood Still

I laughed at sweethearts I met at school
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
