My Heart Stood Still Lyrics - The Rat Pack Live At The Sands - Rat Pack

When most us saddle up for the old trail for our last ride, we leave little 

Enough behind to show that once we have camped here. Some leave more than 

Others, some a memory and some a fortune, some a song. And a song can be as 

Fine a memorial to a man as anything that can be left behind, 'cause you see 

It's gold, and it's gold that all can share. We have a great song to 

Remember Lorenz Hart by, that wonderful melody that he and Dick Rodgers 

Wrote for the Connecticut Yankee, of course you know, My Heart Stood Still 

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. 

(That unfelt clasp of hands told me how well you knew, hmmmm) 

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!) 

Though not a single word was spoken, I could tell you knew 

That unfelt clasp of hands told me so well that you knew 

I never lived at all (until the thrill of that moment) 

(When my heart stood still.)
