The first time ever I saw your face I thought the sun rose in your eyes The moon and the stars were the gifts you gave To the dark and the empty skies The first time ever I kissed your mouth I felt the earth move in my hands Like the trembling heart of a captive bird That was there at my command, my love That was there at my command The first time ever I lay with you I felt your heart beat so close to mine And I knew our joy would fill the earth And would last till the end of time, my love And would last till the end of time The first time ever I saw your face Your face, your face Your face
