My Heart Stood Still Lyrics by Dick Foran

A Connecticut Yankee (1943 Broadway Revival)

0

[MARTIN]
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
[ALICE]
Through all my school days
I hated boys
Those April Fool days
Brought me loveless joys
I read my Plato, said my prayers at night
But since your kiss, I'm living in the light
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
[MARTIN]
Though not a single word was spoken
I could tell you knew
That unfelt clasp of hands
Told me so well you knew
[ALICE & MARTIN]
I never lived at all
Until the thrill
Of that moment when my heart stood still
