The first time, ever i saw your face

I thought the sun rose in your eyes

And the moon and the stars

Were the gifts you gave

To the dark, and the endless skies

My love

To the dark, and the endless skies

And 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

My love

And the first time, ever I lay with you

I felt your heart so close to mine

And i knew our joy

Would fill the earth

And last, til the end of time

My love

And it would last, til the end of time

My love

The first time, ever I saw

Your face

Your face

Your face

Your face
