(Jerry Foster - Bill Rice)

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...
