My Heart Stood Still
Captivated Moments: When Silence Spoke Louder Than Words
Lyrics
I took one look at you
I was initially attracted to you
That's all I meant to do
My intention was just to glance at you
And then my heart stood still
But then, I experienced a sudden emotional impact
My feet could step and walk
Despite this emotional impact, I could physically function
My lips could move and talk
I could still speak and move normally
And yet my heart stood still
Yet, internally, I felt overwhelmed
Though not a single word was spoken
Even without verbal communication
I could tell you knew
I sensed that you understood my feelings
That unfelt clasp of hands
A subtle gesture or touch indicated your awareness
Told me so well you knew
Reinforced the idea that you comprehended
I never lived at all
I hadn't truly felt alive before this moment
Until the thrill of that moment
The excitement of that instant
When my heart stood still
Marked the point when I felt profoundly moved
I took one look at you
Once again, I looked at you
That's all I meant to do
As before, it was just a passing glance
And then my heart stopped right there
This time, my emotions halted abruptly
My feet could step and walk
Despite this emotional stop, I could still function physically
My lips could move and talk
My ability to talk and move remained unaffected
And yet my heart stood still
Internally, I was overwhelmed again
Though not a single word was spoken
Without uttering a word
I could tell you knew
I felt you comprehended my emotions once more
That unfelt claps of hands
Similar unspoken gestures reinforced your understanding
Told me so well you knew
Confirming your deep awareness
I never lived at all
I hadn't truly experienced life's fullness until now
Until the thrill of that moment
The intensity of that moment
When my heart stood still
Marked the moment when I was deeply moved once again
