Lyrics

I took one (C7)look

at you,

that’s all I (Gm7)meant

(C7)to do,

and then my (Bb)heart

(Bb)stood

(F)still!

My feet (Abdim)could (C7)step

and walk,

my lips could (Gm7)move

(C7)and talk,

and yet my (Bb)heart

stood

still!

Though not a (Fm)sin gle word was spo ken, I could (C)tell

(C)you knew.

That un felt (D)clasp

of hands

told me so (G)well

(C7)you knew.

I nev er (C7)lived

at all

un til the (Bb)thrill

(Am)of (Gm)that (Db7)mo ment when my (C7sus)heart

(C7)stood

(Dm7)still.

I took one (C7)look

at you,

that’s all I (Gm7)meant

(C7)to do,

and then my (Bb)heart

(Bb)stood

(F)still!

My feet (Abdim)could (C7)step

and walk,

my lips could (Gm7)move

(C7)and talk,

and yet my (Bb)heart

stood

still!

Though not a (Fm)sin gle word was spo ken, I could (C)tell

(C)you knew.

That un felt (D)clasp

of hands

told me so (G)well

(C7)you knew.

I nev er (C7)lived

un til the (Bb)thrill

(Am)of (Gm)that (Db7)mo ment when my (C7sus)heart

(C7)stood

(Dm7)still.

(F)still.
