Ella Fitzgerald My Heart Stood Still

I laughed at sweethearts I met at schools

All indiscreet hearts seemed romantic fools

A house in iceland was my hearts domain
I saw your eyes, now castles rise in spain!


I took one look at you, thats 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



That unfelt clasp of hands told me so well you knew
Though not a single word was spoken, I could tell you knew
I never lived at all until the thrill of that moment when


Through all my school days, I hated boys
My heart stood still


Those april fool days brought me loveless joys

But since your kiss, Im reading missus glyn!I read my plato, love, I thought a sin
