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 clung 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 hands 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
