My Heart Stood Still (with Raymond Scott & His Orchestra)

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!
