My Heart Stood Still Lyrics


I took one look at you
That's all I meant to do
And then my heart stood stillMy feet could step and walk
My lips could move and talk
And yet my heart stood stillThough 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 stillI took one look at you
That's all I meant to do
And then my heart stopped right thereMy feet could step and walk
My lips could move and talk
And yet my heart stood stillThough 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

Earl Rudolph "Bud" Powell (September 27, 1924 – July 31, 1966) was one of the most influential pianists in the history of jazz. Along with Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie he was instrumental in the development of bebop, and his virtuosity as a pianist led many to call him "the Charlie Parker of the piano". Powell was perhaps the first pianist to vocalize on the piano, meaning that he transfered his vocalized improvisations directly through his hands to the instrument. This gave his music a deep connection to time, which is an artifact of the human voice.
