One day you came along And spoke so tenderly You kissed me oh so sweet And gave your love to me One moment in my life I glowed to every thrill Time was a precious thing The day the world stood still For one day in my life You brought me happiness You stopped the lonely world With all your tenderness I can't get over you I guess I never will Time was a precious thing The day the world stood still The day the world stood still And you were only mine I held you close to me And stopped the hand of time I can't get over you I guess I never will Time was a precious thing The day the world stood still Time was a precious thing The day the world stood still
