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
