My Heart
Goliath And The Giants Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

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

I took one look at you
That's all I meant to do
And then my heart stopped right there

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 claps of hands
Told me so well you knew
I never lived at all

Until the thrill of that moment
When my heart stood still

I took one look at you
I saw you for the first time

That's all I meant to do
I didn't intend to do anything else

And then my heart stood still
I was completely mesmerized by your presence

My feet could step and walk
I was physically capable of moving

My lips could move and talk
I was also capable of speaking

And yet my heart stood still
But emotionally, I was completely captivated

Though not a single word was spoken
We didn't exchange any verbal communication

I could tell you knew
But I sensed that you understood

That unfelt clasp of hands
Our unspoken connection was as strong as a physical touch

Told me so well you knew
It was obvious that you felt the same way
