Time Stood Still

Waiting at the gates of destiny. Thinking of the things that I can't see. When thoughts did quickly turn to you And how I missed you so. 'Tis true That time stood still. Trav'ling in the small world that I knew I chanced upon the beauteous sight of you. Before I could but speak a word I found then that my vision blurred When time stood still. When after I did see you quickly leave The next day when I saw you I did grieve. But when your eye did catch mine too, I thought that what I felt was true And time stood still.
